    Nice wheels, I've been looking on some OZs, how big spacers are those gonna need?
    Ya the quality is unreal for the price they charge. The wheels are et37, so Mystikal said that a 12mm up front and 15mm in the rear would be pretty flush. But I will be getting flares soon, so I have to accommodate for the extra room...and the beefy rubber! :twisted:

    They wont. It's all or nothing with them. If you want to do that, then have them sand-blast the wheels and Alex Castro can paint them for you.

        Look up the pics of my car ET 25 is what my Works are and they aren't close to being flush. They need 15-20mm spacer to be flush, 20-25 out back.

          Well then I guess Jay was just saying to clear the strut? I want to get them pretty flush. We'll have to see what happens when my stud kit comes in.

                    I agree, but I'm gonna hold off on bronze for now. I realized that I only like bronze wheels with dish/concave, these have neither.... :(

                    Hopefully I can have the spacers made in time...I'm gonna be pretty butt hurt if I can't rock these next weekend.

                      Jays specs sound like they are to clear the strut. For truly flush, I would go with a 25 up front and a 35 in the back.

                          Possibly, and I was giving spacer sizes for my wheels, so add 12mm for yours.

                          Then again depends on your idea of flush, but 8" ET 25 in the front olidnt close to flush, looks good, font get me wrong, but isn't flush.

                              Actually you'll notice I quit doing that long ago, most of the time now, I bitch at the fags who barely got their GED and think they are some kind of uber genius because they can tell the difference between your and you're.

                                I'm checking the proper spacing today. I think I may just rock my 15mm spacers for now, so that I can have them on for Bimmerfest! :p

                                After all this talk about offset, I think that these are lower offset then +37. I may be wrong, but the rears had a decent amount of clearance when I tried them on with no spacer??? And they fit about the same way that my et40 17x7 currently do with 15mm spacers all around. This leads me to believe that the wheels may be et30 or 25. If so I'll be much happier! :D

                                I can't find the exact specs online, so I'm gonna figure out the backspacing today. I will report back tonight with the results! ;)

                                Thanks for all the help and comments guys! :woowoo:
