RE: Rims & Wheels

[Randy Block <RandyB@E-Risk.com>]

The Corrado OEM BBS's are 15 X 6.5 , the recommended width for the
195/50/15's.
These are fairly strong, I have not heard of any being bent, unlike the
other G-60 rim.
Watch out for the OEM GTI/GLI multi-piece BBS's, they are not made in
Germany but Japan and are fairly weak.

	May I suggest OEM BBS rims, either from a Corrado G60, or late Mk2
GTI or 
	GLI??  They look *just right* on our cars, are 15", and are
generally pretty
	easy to find at reasonable prices.  I'm not sure whether they're 6"
or 6.5",
	nor what the biggest tire they will accomodate (I'm a 195/50/15 man
myself),
	but for me, either of these are the only way to fly..  :D
