[Es2] 5 X 112 hubs for '90 coupe quattro

[Tom Saltino]

Has anyone successfully used urS4 front hubs for this conversion?  I'm planning it on my 4kq using the front suspension (two-piece struts, control arms, sway bar, etc) from a '95 90q.  I've got a spare Movit 993tt kit that I want to use.  Anybody tried anything similar??

Agreed.  I wish I had done that instead of going with the S2 front hubs.  If
you use the UrS4 front hubs, the entire UrS4 factory and aftermarket brake
bin is open to you, but the S2 hubs have a different offset requiring custom
brackets, expensive Euro kits specifically for the S2, or the use of
spacers.  Live and learn.  The rear S2 hubs are identical to stock in every
way except bolt pattern, so there is no reason not to use them (except for
cost/availability issues).
