its a bugger cos most of the time ya pickk a wheel and find out they dont do ya offset, best thing to do is get a few wheels ya like and ring up for the offsets and go from there, go lower than 40mm man, 60mm+ all the way , if the arches do need trimming its piss to do, any one can do it so dont worry too much about scrubbage its just below ET45 and the handling gets iffy and instead of trimming the arches they will require a dam good cutting lol

cheers mate,
i had chosen a few different types and was told all of them have wrong offset - i have kosei snipers on at the mo et35 - from a clio that was wrote off (some other cunts fault) but when i have people in back in rubs like hell + cornering is a twat, feels like u gonna lose it all the time.
ive been recommended bk racing or 1000 migila(?) but dont really like any of dem - its pissing me off cos i want new wheels now!
