[Biturbos4] Winter wheels

[Grant]

16s are the best choice for several reasons, including winter 
performance. We eent thorugh this at length not long ago.

Zero steel 16" wheels fit over the HP2 calipers. Zero.

Some 16" 35mm alloy wheels fit.  You need to shop around. Almost none of 
the Audi OEM wheels will - 90% are aftermarket, aside from the factory 
winter wheels (rare).

I have ronal R28s 16 x 7.5 x 35mm that work great.  Mille MIglias work. 
Some Momos work.
