anyone running MIM 1900's et13 + et25

[liam012]

Just wondering if anyone has these wheels with the same offset combination
i presume thre et13 are for the rear to look PHAT but unfortunately the et25's don't clear the calipers (because they are too close to hub), anyone else have this problem?

I'm running et13 Mim's all 'round. I noticed when I put them on that there's not much between the spokes and the calipers.
Only suggestions I have are.....
1) et25's with 10mm spacers on the front.
2) Find another pair of et13's and punt the et25's on to a VW owner.
Sorry I can't be more specific.

BTW, I could do with another 2 et13's if you know of any for sale.

are you running ate or girling calipers?

I've got ET13 all round on my 325. No problems with the brakes but they do rub on the rear arches.

I have a MIM-a-likes on my Touring (1900's copy ET13, Made in England, not Italy)

When i replaced the discs and pads i had to get 3mm spacers as the wheel locked solid, interestingly the genuine (spare) ET13 MIM 1900 cleared the calipers

I have 3 sets of MIM 1900's now, 1 fake and 2 gen, but there are differences again, one set of gen MIM's has a small lip in the dish, on the other set the dish runs from the edge of the rim to behind the spokes. Can take pics if anyone wants to see the difference

Oh, and under big compressions (Touring lowered 40mm on correct Touring springs) the wheels catch the rear arch lip, rolling them a bit helped but it still does it

Two of mine are like that. They look to be a slightly different shape, but all clear the brakes OK.

Girling, but I can't see it would make a right lot of odds.
