Default Function before form...

<br>I'm expecting my 99 A4 1.8T qMS to arrive just before Christmas; just in time for a ski trip to the Carolina mtns. I'm already sure I'll get a set of snow tires (prolly Dunlop Graspic) , but I don't care for fancy and *expensive* wheels, since I consider snow duty to be rough duty. <p>Could someone suggest to me an economical 16" wheel to fit 205/55 Graspics?<p><br>many thanks<br>-K.<br>

Re: The person who coined the phrase meant Form and Function are intertwined... meaning they happen at the same time.

What's your price range?

Each wheel should cost within $25 of the tire that goes on it.

Default Tire Rack options, etc...

There are a couple of Mille Miglia wheels (see pic and link) at the Tire Rack for around $120 each; everything else is more $$$. I bought my wife some 14" 5-spoke alloys for her Integra at Discount Tire last year for about $77 each; not high quality, but they work. Also, try Ronal; they have some less expensive ones. HTH. <p>CraigB<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/images/millemig/mm_synthesis.jpg">Mille Miglia Synthesis</a></li></ul>
