Re: Wow, Saw Aero Wheels with 4x108



'89 - '91 100 non-q's were all 4-bolt, like their 5k predecessors. The
ones I've seen all have those 6-slotted flat wheels, with exposed lugs,
of the same style as the 200 and V8 ones (which were 6" and 7.5" wide
respectively, it seems). Those 4-bolt ones are much more common than the
5's, in fact. They certainly make those 100's look a lot better than
standard 5k's, IMO.

The center reflector section did carry on on the 200, while the 100
continued to have the black center section. On 5k's, it was actually the
CS models--not necessarily turbo's, I believe--that had this. I've seen
a couple of 5kcs's--not turbo or quattro--with 4-bolt Ronals and that
center reflector section.
