Can anyone recommend what the best width and et is to run - none of this stance stuff, it's a track car.

Thanks.

15x8j BBS RM012 is where you want to be :D Makes the offset et13, rather than the standard et24 of the mesh BBS. An 8j rim would be a 2" lip - enough to look "dishy" without losing the centre of the rim!

Fit them with a 205/50 15, and you'll be away!


Just to mention though - you're mental running mesh split rims on a track car. Cleaning all the brake dust off them is such a chore...

Paint the dishes silver, then go to the uzbekistani car wash. They love cleaning the baskets on my RS's winkeye
