    20mm or 25mm would be good.

      Does anyone use the old 14" Audi Borbet weaves or am I the village idiot?

        that offset is so high people tend to stay away.

          considering the weaves for our cars are a half inch wider and the correct offset I tend to lean towards the ladder.

            Hey M5wanaB, mine is an 88 Brillanrot vert, same configuration as yours only with the bottlecaps - just have a set from an old audi and was hoping... probably would look goofy huh? but free is free and the cost of spacers isn't overkill. Give some thoughts...

              Could almost pick up e30 weaves for the cost of spacers.

                  It's just one of those situations where it isn't worth it. Sure it could work... but doesn't mean you should do it.

                  To give you an example, a 7 inch wide wheel at et25 is PLENTY conservative. So if you ran a 20mm on a 6inch wide wheel you'd still be sitting very far inside the fender. It's just not worth it.

                    Okay, that is just what I needed to know. Thanks for the input.
                    Where can one find those e30 weaves for cheap?

                      are they even the correct lug pattern?

                      look in the wheels for sale section if you want e30 weaves.
