yes but you'd probably want to use a 12 or 15mm hubcentric spacer otherwise you will be reducing the track width and also likely to have clearance issues to brakes and also the upright.

Well standard 15x7 BBS are et24. You could easily run et35 with 15mm spacers without have issues with tyre to wheel arch clearance.

I run the 1.2s ET15 but they probably aren't up to rally abuse.

I have been running std sport alloys but have lost count of bent ones I have . Manx tarmac roads are hard on wheels !
