Default Did I get screwed?

I just put snow tires on my Audi A4 1.8T. I just looked at the receipt and he put on 205/60R15 Hankook W400s for $110 a piece.

When I checked around it looks like that car should have 16 inch tires. Anyone know for sure?

Default uhhh, must be a typo....

you cant put 15" tires on 16" rims, or vice versa. Just not physically possible.

No, I must be an idiot. Could my car have 15 inch rims?

Default Go out and check on the tires. What wheels do you have?

It's either a typo, or that's what you have. I can't imagine they jammed 15"s on a 16" wheel.

Default Why ask us, numnut????

Turn off the computer, go down to the car, and look at the sidewall on a tire!!!!!!

(I think the 1.8Q of a few years ago came with 15" standard.)
