Need Help deciding which Wheels



Finally having some extra bucks in my pocket my car deserves a treat, first
set of alloys.  I have an '88 80, 4x108 ET45 setup.  I have been considering
going with Audi/Ronal original 90 Sport Quattro wheels.  They are hard to
find, plus they aren't as snappy as I remembered once I got a look at them
up close.  Then I was thinking about Borbet Type T 16x7.5" w/ 205/45 Toyo
Proxes F24 setup for $1349.95 including mounting, balancing, and tax.  That
is a reasonable price, plus I know someone who works at the place I would
get them from.  Then tonight I noticed that I really liked the TSW Hock R's.
Really good looking wheel.  Any 80/90 owners (or anyone) with opinions about
either one looking, handling, standing up to abuse better on a 80?  I am
trying to picture the car with both wheels in 16" but am having a hard time
visualizing, plus I know nothing about the quality of TSW.  I know Borbet is
up there in terms of quality, at least that is what I know.  Appreciate any
thoughts, or suggestions for even nicer, top quality alloys for my 80.  16"
is my size choice for now.

Plus:  Anyone lowered a 90q20V around the 40mm from stock height mark
before?

Thanks!
