UrQ Tire/Wheel Combo SUMMARY

[Andrew Finney <afinney@tamsconsultants.com>]

Thanks again to Jeff Goggin for a few updates to the list. Here
is the list in its most updated form. Please keep in 
mind that this is a working list. If anyone has any comments or
questions 
please email me privately. I'll update the list periodically as
new 
information arises. I hope I haven't misquoted anyone, if I have
email me. 
Thanks. The following tire and wheel sizes are purported to
work with 
non-flared rear fenders and a lowered suspension
(Eibachs/H&R, etc) unless 
noted.

Don't go there without help.

>From this compilation there are some notables. 16x7.5 ET35
w/ 225/45-16, 16x8 
ET35 w/225/45-16, or for the slightly more budget minded 16x7
ET37 w/ 
205/55-16. Interesting combo is the Benn Howell suggestion of
different sizes 
front and rear with the 16x7.5 ET35 wheel. HTH,
