7x 15 ET42 Ronal R8's

[Thompson Smith <thompers@together.net>]

Yes, it's true! There is such a thing! These rims were originally given
to a local VT racer in the Audi quattro sponsored US Pro Skiing tour
back in the late 80's. Believe it or not, AoA GAVE away a few 80 or 90
quattros with an additional set of summer (these 7x15 ET42 R8's) and
winter tire/rim combos to the winners. I ended up with these rims from a
rally friend. VERY rare. Too bad AoA doesn't give Frank Sprongl anything
for his consistent yearly wins at the hillclimb...

BTW, my 90 20v'er is sold.
