    Wheel Fitment?

    Hi, I'm new to this forum. So just want to say hi first off.

    I own a 96-n valver and are looking at buying some new wheels.

    Will 17" alloys fit with an offset of ET45? Or is there a specific offset i should be looking for?

    Cheers,

    Craig

    Ideally you need a ET36

    ET45..... MAY rub on the front shock, but they will clear the arches better

    17's suck!!!!!!!!!! :P

    17's suck, ET37 IIRC is the correct fitment

    Go for 15's

    i swapped from 17s (on the car when bought :( ) to 15s...

    let's just say completely different car handling and acceleration wise :D
