    Just so you know its not the offset that determines if these particular wheels will clear, its the design of the wheels that cause it to hit the caliper bracket. There is no way to run these wheels without either cutting off your caliper bracket or running spacers.

        LOL Yeah don't do that...

        OP grinding the calipers is not a big deal. But like others said get low before you blow money on wheels

              ive been reading threads on e30tech and either way if i run spacer that they will shake at around 70+
              They shouldn't shake if the wheels are balanced correctly. If you buy quality spacers, they should be made with high tolerances. With that being said, spacers do speed up the wear on wheel bearings. It's not a huge issue, though.

              It depends on the barrel of the wheel, which is specific to each brand and style of wheel.
