Re: [Peugeot-L] rust never sleeps - 505 rear suspension arms; Fulda tires

BT,

  I have a set of 215/60HR15 directional Fuldas on my 89 Audi 200 Turbo Quattro, and they have done pretty well for the past 35k miles, although I think I have a radial pull in one of them now. As far as ride and handling, I have absolutely no complaints. The ride is fairly smooth despite the fact that I run them, on the highway, at least, at 34psi (I need all the fuel milage I can get-my 5 cylinder turbo with the extra drivetrain barely gets 24 on the hwy!)

Regards,
Ben Pender
