[urq] Ronal wheel oddity?

[Martin Pajak]

Jim,

That's just like BBS rims for the Ur-quattro... they were not "factory"
option but a dealer installed Accessory from an Audi catalogue, hence, no
BBS rims in Family album.  I think every North American owners manual had
one page color ad for some of the dealer options for our cars... floor mats,
shift knobs, roof racks etc. etc.

Probably one of those cases in UK.

Cheers
Martin

Nope, these were 7" - they were dished inwards like 8" ones. Never found
them listed in TFA but I'm sure the guy who had a set last year said they
came off a 200.
