Hmm.  The data page on the "Fahrwerk" microfiche lists a change from 6 (205 
tyres) to 8 (215 tyres) starting with the 1985 model year.  But the box below 
just contains the "45 ET" value - even though the parts fiche doesn't list an 
8x15 wheel with a 45mm offset.

I would refer to it as an oversight rather than a typo.  They changed the tyre 
and wheel boxes, and missed the offset.
 
Does anyone on the list have a German registered car?  If so, are the offsets 
entered in the "permissible tyres" section of the Wagenpapiere?
