[Biturbos4] Winter wheels

[Mark Rosenkrantz]

There were a few, really few 16" rims that would fit a B5S4... But they may be no longer made.  Anything newer, you're at 17" for sure.  TireRack might have some alloy rims well under $150 each... A good investment.  With my wholesale account I get a decent discount on rims, but I can't drop ship... So unless you're near Binghamton, NY you could try to find someone local that deals with them.  Avoid the steelies... They just look awful and are likely heavier and even more prone to salt corrosion.
