I have done some more research and i want some more imput. I have been reading on s14.net that the e36 m3 wheels are a popular choice. Theyre a 42mm offset and most like to use spacers to get down around 20-22mm. My wheels are 47mm offset, a 5mm difference from the e36 m3 wheel (duh). Anyways, if i used a 20mm spacer i would be at 27mm. So i guess my questions are, Is that 5mm going to be a huge difference? I dont think it will be a clearance issue, just preference? I will be upgrading wheels and tires down the road but im just going to use what fell into my lap if it wont be a safety hazzard or something.
