Deep Dish Alloys
« on: 13 July 2012, 09:30 »
Hello All,

Has anyone fitted BBS LMs deep dish alloys to their mk4?

Had a couple of people telling me negative offset can cause alot of strain on suspension and other linking parts.

Is anyone set up on these? I have FK AK street collys aswell.

If anyones got any measurement advice that would be great!

Thanks !

What offsets are they?  :undecided:

The LM reps are 35ish I think...No issue with putting strain on the hubs there mate, pretty much all alloys for the mk4 platform have an offset of 30ish.

Was hoping to get one with a tyre package with it but seems that the deeper the dish the harder they are to come across!

Ebay always the best shout??

if i had a mark 5, the bbs chs would be nice, but LMs all the way on the mk 4.

why are you thinking of changing the 8,5j all round??
