I know that an 8 in. wide wheel for an e30 M3 requires 20-24 mm offset. I believe that a narrower wheel would need less. In any event, if you are positive that a 15 mm spacer will work with a 7.5/ 36 mm wheel, I can't imagine that an extra 2 mm is going to make that much difference.

Insofar as those wheels are concerned, I would be very skeptical. They appear to be knock-offs of AC Schnitzer Type III wheels, which sell for around $500/wheel. Why are these so cheap? The ad says they are TuV approved. I would want to see some documentation of that approval.
