forgot to say needs to be reasonably cheap lol unless some form on donations towards me can be started  :ashamed:

Post by: gazbutS3 on November 15, 2008, 11:44:35 pm
that would make sense with a 42et, what wheels are they then? not ED30 as they are 51et
Title: Re: hey
Post by: jaffa on November 16, 2008, 11:51:44 am
they are original BBS CO VW would have made the ED 30 versions the offset they wanted at et51 ( same as GTI wheel offset )
