Urquattro & BBS RSII - match made in heaven



yesyesyesyes....

I was not sure how the modern, top of the line BBS wheel (17x8) would look
with my Urquattro, thinking that I should maybe stick with the Ronals, but
my worries were wiped off when watched the guys mount the 215/45ZR17
Goodyear F1 shod wheels on the car.  WOW!  The wheels are ET35, and no
problems whatsoever, especially since the original 15x8's are ET24.  So the
wheel sits a little further in, but it looks good - and will give me
clearance aplenty in the wheelwells once I decide on the suspension setup.

Any recommendations on springs and/or shocks - I need both?  A little lower
(not much, the Euro car sits fairly low as it is) and a little stiffer stan
stock...

BTW, my second day with the car, along with a proper wash/minor detail made
it clear that the car is cosmetically anywhwhere between B+ and A-
considering the age/mileage.  From 30 feet away from any angle she is just
beautiful.
