you'll probs need 20mm spacers on the back
and 15 mm spaces on the front

what would be correct et for front and back???

I think you'd be very lucky to get these to fit without rubbing. That's a damn wide rim.

What wheels are they?

i agree with the others, you might just squeeze them on if you use a slightly narrower tyre with a bit of a stretch.

for referance, i use a 9in rear with et22, a 9.5in with et 22 would mean 1/4in on the inside edge, and 1/4in on the outside edge, there's probably just about room, which means using a 235 40 tyre it will be slightly streached but shouldnt hit the arch, but you may need to get the lips rolled.

to bring an et45 out to et22 youd need a 23mm spacer, plus longer bolts. you might need to push them out even further so the inside edge of the rim doesnt catch, which would mean an even thincker spacer

on the front i have 8in rims which are et20, and fit fine, again, i would guess there's room for 1/4in extra front and back (but havent checked) which would mean an 8.5 et20 'should' be ok so you'd need a 13mm spacer. the inside edge might be too close to the strut though so you might have to use a slightly thicker spacer. think e30 m3 rondell 58 wheels use 8.5x17 et 13 all round
