Baby (V8) Got a New Pair of Shoes
The old V8 finally had enough of the old Dunlops and the original
aftermarket wheels. Got a new set of A8 take offs and the Perelli P7000
Supersports 225-50-ZR-16. What a difference this combination makes in
both styling and performance. The A8 take offs fill the wheel well
nicely on the V8 and the Perelli's perform tremendously on the back
roads od upstate NY. Haven't had a chance to try the P7000's in the rain
yet, but I undestand they do well.
This also means that I have 4 15-inch Momo "type" spoke wheels with a
35mm offset with 4 used Uniroyal TigerPaw GTH 215-60-R15 mounted for
sale . The center piece is the original Audi V8 center piece that has
the 4-rings. One of the tires has only about 10K miles on it due to a
side wall puncture over the winter. Would make a good winter wheel for
someone. Asking $350 for all As-is.
Many thanks to Greg Hyman at Autofirme in Pawling, NY for the tire
recommendation and locating the take offs. The 4-wheel alignment makes
a world of difference in the tracking of the car. For any listers in the
upstate NY area, Greg is moving his shop over to downtown Amenia at the
beginning of June and is going into business with his brother who also
happens to specialize in Audi body work. Good Luck to Greg and Bruce!
