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

[John Karasaki]

That is not true.  There are NO spacers needed with the urS4 front 
hubs.  Actually, the offset with the urS4 hubs is exactly the same as the 
offset with the standard CQ hubs.  The S2 offset is different by 
2mm.  However, since the G60 calipers are floating calipers anyway, 2mm 
doesn't make any difference with the S2 or urS4 hubs.  HTH.
