    BBS RG-F Help me decide

    Hey guys, I found a really good deal on 15x7 RG-F wheels, only problem is they are hunda fitment at et42.
    I realize they would need spacers, but I have never run spacers on a car and dont know if its a ok idea or not.
    Please help me decide to either pull the trigger or walk away. Thanks
    I love that people ask stupid questions so I dont have.

    If you like them enough grab them. It would be hard/impossible to get them flush though.

      How will running 20mm spacer affect durability/ performance.

        Spacers have proven to be safe


        This is my last e30. Most would consider this perfectly flush, IE the rims line up perfectly with with fender lips. These are 15x8 with 0 offset. So even with 20mm spacers your wheels would sit 35mm more tucked then this

            I would say its not, but what about 4 with tires for less than $425? Thats the deal I am facing!!

              Oh, well that's not bad. I assumed you were buying them from that site.

                  I'd say if your willing to spend the money for some 35mm spacers go for it. Otherwise i'd just get something like those CCW knockoffs.

                    If it helps Tirerack sells (sold) the ET42 16x7 RG-F with a 20mm spacer as part of their 'standard fitment' or whatever.

                    Get some well made hubcentric (to car and to wheel) spacers along with some 75mm wheel studs and you will be OK

                      Pretty sure he would have to go with 90mm studs if he want's to run a 20mm spacer.

                      OP as long as you run properly long bolts then a spacer shouldn't be an issue.
