BBS RS fitment
« on: 28 June 2013, 14:28 »
Ok might swap my wheels for some bbs rs splits, but do the wheels clear the front 288mm caliper? The fronts are 7" et 20. Been machined down too.

I have to run 15mm spacer on my schmidts so if these are same that would make them et5  :laugh:

any info will help. Even if you got reps  :smiley:

With an ET of 20, you'll be lucky they'll fit!

my 8" et20 schmidts fit fine with coilovers all the way down  :wink: but they are et35 with 15mm spacer making them et20.

If the bbs rs fits with no spacer then happy days. But this is the question im trying to find answer too.
