Yes yes...it will fit. Why don't you post your suspension setup too.

On a side note. Any rim will fit...regardless. It's just HOW you'll make it fit.

Uhm you can make them NOT rub. Anyway that's out of the question.

Yes it will fit. What's the offset? +45? Hehe.

look at the title

ET48

Cause if I look at the Wheel fitment thread, I see some 8inch wide on 45 to 42 offset so thats why I ask. I thought that maybe i'll need some 3mm spacers.

I don't see any reason why it won't fit. Go for it and be happy. If ever you're going to buy spacers, make sure it's wheel and hub centric.

You can put rings on most spacers now. Most of them come out at 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, 25mm and 30mm. The rest are either uncommon or custom. I'd go custom so you don't have to buy rings anymore, although if you decide to part ways with your spacers it's a bit hard to sell.

You'll need longer studs if you go with sandwiches instead of adaptors. It's a must. Mine's all custom from Fred Goeske. Call him and ask him if he can make you one for your car. His spacers/adaptors are very durable. I used them in the track and I was running 15mm sandwich up front and 35mm at the back.

I recommend less than 10mm if you're going sandwich. You should ask around in other forums too. Because mine is all from experience. It might differ from other drivers.

should I stay on 45 profile or go on 40

As for the spacers, I don't think I'll need longer studs since if I put some spacers it wont be more than 3mm

Why would you want to go down to 40?

$7 for a set. Come on man...you're gonna get cheap on that one?
