Re: Wheels for 91TQ

[Wolff <quattro200@earthlink.net>]

16" Speedlines from an A8 will fit if you put a 4mm spacer on the front
wheels. BTDT, they look great. Tire size will be 205/55-16 or 225/50-16,
your choice. Note: If you do not put a spacer in there, the wheel will
be contacting the front rotor and not the hub. If you use a thicker
spacer than 4mm, you will be subtracting lug bolt thread depth from the
hub. That would be bad. Longer lug bolts than stock, that are threaded
up far enough cannot be found. The A4 5 spokers may be dimensionally the
same as the A8 ones, but the A8's have a slightly better finish from
what I could tell.
