    So i purchased a set of vw wheels for my e30...

    they are et 40. what size spacers should i run? i would like to have a somewhat staggered look, even though the wheels are the same size, any recomendations? 15 mm in the front, 20 mm in the back? would this work?

    thanks. :up:

        VW Mk1 (Rabbit) wheels have the exact proper fitting for the e30: et25 and 57.1mm hub. Check Ronal/Centras etc. Tons of old skool VW wheels on VWVortex

            they were on a mk1 vw rabbit actually, they were his auto-x wheels.

            they look like this, not sure of width, maybe someone is familiar with these?

                      They should clear the struts without any spacers at all if they're 6.5" wide.

                      20mm spacers to look good.
