Jorge, you probably wouldn't be able to get them to fit in the front without a spacer. I think the flatness of the spoke design is going to be a killer for you. The best thing to do is to meet up and try them on for size.

Yeah like we did with the ts dubs!

We'll see though. I got a set of new wheels coming in tomorrow that will appease the Euro wheel loving crowd...:evilgrin:

Well the Works are about the same price as the BBS's. The tires I put on there about 2 months ago were Potenza RE760 Sports 215/35.

And yes those are Ivan's and RUD-E's old wheels!

I had to bring them back to the west coast.

Are you running alot of camber? what susp. set up do you have?
I have the option of running the same wheels but either in a 16x7 with ET 33, 16x7 ET 24, or 17x8 ET 35.

What would be the best fitment with a 2.5" drop.

I would go with the 17x8 set up and u will need more than a 2.5indrop.. 1.7 degrees in front and2.5 in rear of camber... But it should be a bit more now since I went lower, suspension is eibach pro street s coil overs (rebadge kw v1) no rear perch and one coil cut and front cranked all the way down past the threads..

With this wheel/tire setup how much rolling (if any) was required to prevent rubbing?

These look so good, i should have bought these for my fiance instead of a ring. Maybe she would love me more LOL
