[urq] AP Calipers

[Daniel Jones]

Actually if you look at the Euro ETKA you will find there is a 15x7 ET20
Fuchs wheel as the winter wheel for the sport quattro. with 25mm less offset
the wheel would naturally look about 1" wider.

the Rally wheels were 15"x9" ET12.
You can find them in the Euro-TFA, for the 1984 Sport Quattro.
Cool wheels IMO.

HHMMM,
If you've seen any of the raly stage photos with the "spare" Fuchs around.

There is clearly a lot more space between the spokes and the outer lip.
That leads me to believe that they are at least an inch wider than road
going versions or have a really small to negative offset which I would say

is the lesser liklihood.

I would tend to disagree on the statement of wider Fuch's.  I have  seen
many
pics of the rally cars wearing Fuchs, and some of the pics show the  wheel
off.  The cars used a humongous wheel spacer, a good inch thick which  put

the
Fuch's way outside of the interference of the AP calipers.
