Audi V8 1992; wheel and tire fitment.

[dennis jones <deej_jones@compuserve.com>]

I have the option of putting Pirelli 235/45x17 P7000SS tires on
my V8, on either 17x7.5 or 17x8.5 Borbets.  The tires have the same
rolling radius as the original 215/60x15 and the factory optional
225/50x16 tires, so that will not be a problem, and the Tire Rack
assures me that the 7.5 and the 8.5 rims will both work fine.

However, is there anyone out there who has any experience that
they would like to share?  If so, I would appreciate a direct e-mail
to me:  DEEJ_JONES@compuserve.com

Partly because I do not always have time to read the digest, and
when it is over about 27,000 bytes my computer treats it as a 
file to download and stores it in a funny format that I cannot read!

Thanks to all who respond!
