    Sorry, newbie. So if i went with the Konig Remembers 35mm offset, with 15mm hubcentric spacers, how far will the wheels protrude? Will I be rubbing fender? What about the 20mm offset wheels? especially since I am putting in H&R Race Springs and Billys? Also what brand or does it matter for the hubcenter spacers? I saw that Rogue Engineering has them, but not for the e30. H&R makes some that look pretty good. Thanks for the help everyone. peace
    Just get the ET20 remembers, with 205/50/16 tires (same diameter as stock) they won't rub, even with the slammed suspension. H&R makes excellent spacers.

No wobble with my hub rings and i did not even melt them when i practically warped my rotors. The wheels are a couple pounds heavier than the stock basket weaves so if your CAB are bad you will notice it instantly.
      That is not an inch protrusion over stock. Stock 15" basketweaves are ET24, these are 4mm out. You don't need ultra low profile tires.

        My 16x8 et20's don't rub with 225's, in fact I may even add 5mm spacers some day

        My car is sitting on vw stockies atm, and at et35 I'm glad I don't drive it. If I was on the street and saw someone driving my car in it's current state, I'd laugh at his poor wheel fitment.

          Only because of the camber. With stock mounts, they would rub.

            Where can I get hubcentric rings for the et20 Remembers? I just ordered a set of them, so I'll need to get rings. I figured I could try TireRack, but last time when I ordered them for the Borbets, I had to tell them exactly what wheels they were for, what car the wheels were originally bought for, and what they were going on. Will they just sell me the right ones outright, or will I have to get them somplace else?

            Also, I'll need 73.1 - 57.1 rings, correct?
