Thanks and a question

[Jack Thomas <jsthomas@pac.gte.net>]

Dan,

	First of all, thanks for providing such a great resource for 
Audi lovers and future Audi lovers.  I fall into the latter category.  I 
wanted to post this question to your readers, but I don't know how 
(perhaps I'm a future web lover as well).  The question I have is what 
is the biggest wheel/tire combo that the A4 1.8TQ can accomodate without 
scrubbing.  The sport package has 205/55 16's, but I was thinking about 
finding some 17" rims and going to a 45 aspect ratio.  The only problem 
is, I can't find any 205/45 17 tires.  I am concerned about maintaining 
the rolling diameter for gear ratio and speedo reasons, but I don't know 
how big I can go.
	With regard to the FUTURE in future Audi lover.  I live in 
Hawaii and will until this summer when I will move to the West Coast of 
the US.  The reason I am not a present Audi owner is that the 1 Audi 
dealership in Hawaii has no problem with advertising a $5,000 "market 
adjustment" above MSRP for every Audi they have (it's a short list).  
Therefore, I'll bite my lip until June.  Reading email and looking at 
Audi related sights helps until then.
	Again, cheers for such a useful tool.  I've already gotten 40 or 
so emails from your users and look forward to reading many, many more.  
By the way, you have great taste in cars and beer.  Aloha!  -Jack Thomas
