Will 7" rims with 35mm offset be ok? Tyre width 205.

Just wondered if the extra 8mm (diff between standard 43mm and 35mm) will push them too far out?

Should be OK.

I run ET32, and yes they stick out the arch *slightly* but they are fine. I was planning on making mine ET35 anyway if I could find an engineering company that would undertake the job.

I kow there was some scope for them to come out slightly, i was thinking of 5mm spacers for the rear. Just wasnt so sure about the front. Thanks guys..:)

Ive allways got cheapish Audi TT/S3 wheels and tyres about if you want a set. Both me and Tom run 7.5 x 17 wheels with the sameish 32 33 offset with no problems, both of us run 205/40 17 Toyo proxes.

Yes seen them but the guy is not willing to shorten the distance between us for me to pick them up.

Just have to look elsewhere.
