urq wheel offsets

Can someone out there refresh my memory on the offset for the 8" urq wheels
on the '85 cars?  My '85 had those stolen while they were being repainted
and I've got 16" Moda M1's with +36 offset right now and was wondering about
the original wheels.

Also, I seem to remember Phil saying that 215/50 -15's were never OEM on the
urq's, but my grey market LHD UK car is stickered with exactly that size
denoted as stock and it had 8" wheels.  Seems to me that 215's are pretty
stretched on an 8" wheel.  I was looking at the 215/50-16 g-Force T/A kdw's
using the urS4 8" wheels and found that the max recommended width is 7.5".

Thanks,

Steve
