Re: fuchs on a 4kq (after 5 bolt conversion of course)

[Martin Pajak <quattro@rogerswave.ca>]

John,

All the factory Groupe A rally 80 quattros (that I have seen in most pictures)
came with Ur-q 5 bolt suspension and Fuchs wheels.
I would therefore asume they would fit the 4kq with 5kt struts (basically the
same as Ur-q).
There is lot's of room in the back (unless you use Ur-q hubs) and the front
looks fine if you use the same offset which Fuchs I believe have ET45.

Good luck.
