Like SilverShadow mentioned, it is in the Basic Specifications sticky: zerothread/125907.

I am adding the following comment (since I think you have a first-gen 1990-1996 Q45, right?): the 19" rims have a high offset ... will not fit a Q45 without spacers (which I personally consider a dangerous thing to do on a heavy car like the Q - YMMV, of course!)

No, I have a second generation Q, dangerous, come-on, really dangerous. I know at least 3 people that have had spacers on their cars including Kevin Falk's car, they might not be "recommended" but dangerous, I hardly think so.

Thanks for the info, BTW, I have always meant to try to ask you to meet for lunch or a beer, I live over the hill in Half Moon Bay....

Cheap spacers are dangerous, good quality (> $125 per axle) hub-centric bolt ones are not.

Like I said, YMMV! I would much rather get a wheel that fitted perfectly against the hub. But, if you are okay with it, then, by all means, get some good spacers and go for it!

Sure thing! We should ... are you in San Jose on occasion?

I was over in Half Moon Bay just a few weeks ago - stayed for a couple of days at an excellent hotel just North of town. Name escapes me just now, but I will remember it shortly.

Found it! I stayed at the "BEACH HOUSE" at 4100 North Cabrillo Hwy, Half Moon Bay, CA 94019. Wonderful place!

Sweet that is right across from where I live in El Granada! Come on over for a crab boil sometime and we'll talk Q's and M's over a beer and fresh dungess crab.
