I once had a Corrado G60 with 4 on 100mm pattern, the VR6 has 5 on 
100mm... I tried some 185/65/15 and they would rub during hard bumps and 
corners. Can't fit anything smaller than a 15" wheels because of the 11" 
brakes.  Gee, what will I do with my 12" x 1.25" rotors with 4 piston 
Brembo calipers, they only fit under my 16" wheels, time for a winter car?
