Hi all,
any idea what spacers would be needed for ET35 8j x 17 4x100 wheels running 205/40 front 215/40 rears?
Thanks in advance

I'd say at least a 15mm spacer for them to look good, might get away with a 10mm though.

yup, all on. Delivered on Monday 9am, very impressed with the service as only ordered on Friday at 3pm! Came with 15mm spacers and longer wheel bolts and spigot rings to suit. Very helpfull and really knew there onions.
The wheels are great for the money in my opinion. I fitted 205/40/17 fronts and 215/40/17 rears. My car has a 40/30 drop and the fronts look awesome, very slight stretch, rears are perfect for 215's. I do have a slight issue with rear arch scrub but havent yet looked if its arch related and may be fixed by 10mm spacers. Apart from that small issue its all good. Look nice with polished rim and a nice width too.
Ill get pics up when i get back from hols
