Why is that? The offset is et41 and 9" wide. According to my research they will fit fine? I've test fitted them and they fitted!! I'm planning on running coil overs and going lower but no air.. Have you tried bentley wheels or have any evidence they won't work? If so it looks like there going up for sale..

I'm (assuming) that he's meaning they poke a lot, meaning if you had air the arches could sit on the rim (again, only an assumption, I'm no wheel expert)

I'm no wheel expert either but after a lot of research it's seems the general rule is they will fit, aggressive fitment on the front but still fit...I'm wondering if he has had first hand experience in the subject? If so then I will sell.them
Leigh200sx:
Well after a day of driving around on the bentley wheels I can confirm they fit with no rubbing at all yet... It needs to lower now. I've dropped the car in to my local painter who is refurbing the wheels.for me.. This is a picture he sent me, the colour is a Ferrari Silverstone grey I think he said. Any thoughts on these
Leigh200sx:
Wheels on and I have to admit I think it looks pretty good
Wooosh:
