I could have sworn that Audi had a 15x6 4-bolt alloy wheel....thought I
saw them while looking for rims at the local (rip-em-off) junkyard.  I
think they came off an early '80's Audi 100.  They did not have a 45mm offset,
though...something more akin to 35mm, I think.

Anyone know for sure?

The Speedlines off of a '90-'91 Coupe quattro should fit, but they are
15x7 and (I believe) not very inexpensive.
