Wheel offset question

[buster]

hi all,ive been looking out for some new wheels.
Love the 17 pina reps but every ones got them so i want a change.

I love the borbet B's but biggest is 16" and i want 17 or 18's

I know all the bumf about big wheels but i dont care.Ive been running 17's on a few e30's for a long time and like the way it runs and handles.

So ive narrowed it down to Keskin KT4's in 17x8,et30 and plan to fit 245x35's which have the same rolling radius as the 215x40's ive got.

Question is will the offset be ok at et30 ?
Im not sure what my pina reps are (not BK ones) and unsure if id need spacers or not.

cheers

sorry i cant be much use here??

but my et30 azevs wont go on without spacers as the back of the spokes catches on the caliper braket

have also heard some et30 hit the shocks? but dnt know if this is right??

Think some clear calipers with ET30 ? mine dont and as daz said his dont

at that ET30 just need 5mm spacers to bring it down to ET25

So should be fine.....but I am sure someone will come along and tell you more..

Good luck

maybe he can answer

Definitely need spacers or you'll have issues with 8s at et30.

[dazleeds]

mine still hit the calipers with 5mm spacers
hence why there not on the car gutted

they are 7.5x16 azevs

so what do you think then guys ? 5 mm spacer ?

these are keskin kt4's for those who don't know :



Id have gone for rondel type 58's but they dont do 17's in 4 stud.

I think adam had keskin kt1's.

No solutions then guys ?
