5000TQ wheels fit on 89 200TQ?



Mike,

The offset is 45mm which is the same for both the stock 5000TQ 15 inch 
5 lug wheels and the 89 200TQ 15 inch wheels. The only caution is
 that I remember reading in a service bulletin years ago that
a minor change was done to the inside of the early 5 lug alloy wheels
 sometime in late 86 when they went to the dual piston brake calipers. 
I believe the outward appearance stayed the same on these wheels
when they made this change.

I don't know if the early wheels  would have any clearance 
problems on the inside when mounted on the 89 200TQ. I will
try and locate the service bulletin that mentioned this change and see if 
it
lists the wheel part number, the micro fiche I have for the 5000TQ
may also have a listing.

Others on the list may want to comment on whether they have
seen a problem with this......

HTH for now
Scott M.
