Servus and welcome onboard!

What an awesome car and spec. The Individual interior and rims are fantastic, and match the saphire black point just right

What rims do you have planned for winter? (--unfortunately its that time of the year again!)

For winter I will use M167 8,5x19 ET12 with Conti TS 810 Sport or Dunlop 3D 245/35-19 W.
It wasn?t any problem to legalize the springs and the rims.

...am well impressed - i thought i was the only silly one to drive around in winter with 19" but respect that you are willing to do that in a place like vorarlberg...

regarding the tires, don't take the dunlop 3d - have that on my 166 8,5 winter setup. the tires are not very wide, they looked stretched on the wheels...
