Yea man sweet fc- similar to my white 91 cept u got them nice fd rims..............RedShayla I took a look at ur fc through the link in your sig- looks awsome- really friggin clean! It almost looks like it just rolled off the assembly line really nice. BTW just a warning a mod might move this to the sticky "Post your pics of fc"

I think I saw you the other day if that really was you. I saw the same exact FC, white with Fd wheels going down Great America parkway and then turning in to togos/shell station. Sweet looking FC

The car posted is a non-turbo S5. It is capable of having true dual exhaust.

I'm getting my 91 NA repainted next month... Factory color code is UC (white crystal)... but, I was dead set on getting it painted black.... I think this post convinced me to keep it white.... That car is dead sexy. And 91 wheels would look ALMOST as good as FD wheels.

not quite sure how to answer that because the original wheels are 15x6 or 6.5 and fd wheels are 16x8. the spacers are 20mm and have their own studs. they bolt onto the hub with the old studs. i bought them from auto rnd

Yeah. I've used those before on my Jeep... I was just converting lug-pattern, but same deal. Aluminum usually. Tempered studs.. I know the deal... So.. I suppose the answer is 20mm spacers.

Have you tried the FC wheels with those spacers just for fun? heh
