re. Tires

[Ted Fisher]

These are the Michelin Pilot XGT Z4 (Ultra High Performance All-Season 
<http://www.tirerack.com/tires/types/uhpas.jsp>) for the 1991 Audi 200 
20 Valve that I have been using. Since I no longer track the car very 
aggressively (wife's TT gets that duty) I wanted a good all rounder. The 
Michelin has proven to be one for the job.

BTW, I run these on a set of the V8 optional BBS 16x8 wheels (225/50x16).
