You guys want phat on a type44? This is the way I made mine fit. The fronts
work great w/o any mods, the rears needed creative flaring. My 8"x15 urq
Ronal R8s with ET24 and 205/60-15 tires work awesome. Talk about making the
type44 handle. Wider IS better. Love the retro look. Who needs sway bars.
Summer only of course. '93 urS4 winter 7.5x15 ET40 Speedlines on her now.

My old type44 '90 200 Avant had 7.5x15 MSW ET35 up front and the same rims
machined back to ET40 on the rear without flaring. This was with 205/55-15
Dunlop W10s and 2Bennett Spax adjustables w/Eibach springs. Good combo and
ride.

I plan to use my Fuchs or Ronal R8s with 15mm H&R Trak+ spacers on my urq
this next summer's hillclimb season with 205/55-15 and stock springs and
ride height. I will let everyone know how this combo works.
