eT 12/13 Is what most aftermarket 15 inch in the 6-7 inch range use. On a 15 inch wheel some wheels up to et 20 will work, it depends on the profile of the rim.

For 14 inch E-30 wheels, spacers work, I had to run 15mm (all the way around to look right) to avoid contact with the steering arm (8mm just hit the rim cornering.) With the standard 6inch wheels.


thats what ive always heard, so whats the real offset they need to be, max/min? what looks best? front/rear please...
