Will it rub
« on: 15 October 2009, 02:59 »
I have dropped my car 40mm and i am looking at getting a set of 18" LM reps the et on them is et35. I have read the wheels thread in maintance and it says u have to have et38 so it doesn't rub. Anyone one running 18s on a 40mm drop with an et35? Does it rub?
