The rears need a 5mm, and run a 225 (if you want the Euro look and don't want serious fender work).
An offset of ET15 + 5mm spacer = ET10. The rim is going to stick 15-17mm further out than your average wheel, or almost an inch further than your normal wheel and tire combo.
Understand?

any ricer shop doesn't have longer lugs though
some of them have various lug nuts, but noone has longer lug bolts
and yes, i meant hubcentric ring not hubcentric spacer. but I was wondering if a spacer would be needed for either of the wheels, alsoOriginally posted by bluntcan you get me a deal on cases of their (fiji) bottled water? i wash my 02 in that shit

Originally posted by DigitalwaveI think you are confused. A 5mm spacer makes ET10, with a 16x9" rim that is going to stick a couple inches outside the fender.
Originally posted by e30MattYeah. E30s like an offset in the 25-27mm range.

Understand?
The "25-27" rule only applies to 7.5" wide wheels. For example, a 7" wheel looks better with 20 (the wheel is smaller, it needs to and can be pushed out further).
