Issues RE offset??

[Da]

Now I know the 182 is ET45 as standard, so if I was to fit ET37 wheels on my car which at present is standard would I have any real issues?
Also I may be adding Eibach Sportlines if I can get hold of any. I know the drop isn't massive but would this cause any issues?

Cheers

shouldnt cause any issues at standard height. May depend on the wheel design too re. clearance when lowered? I dont think there'd be any issues on a 30mm drop - I'm pretty sure its been done many times over

Cheers Rory, I guess the only way to know 100% is to try them! lol!

with et37 and lowering you will have rubbing with 50 profile tyres, but 45 should fit ok, or at least that is what i found.

ph 2 172 and 182 are different though, different offsets as standard and different track, hubs etc so may be slight differences in clearance.

et 37 on a 182 will cause problems if lowering i believe

check that out, machined the wheels to a 41mm offset due to fitment issues of et37.

Im not sure if this is a problem at standard ride height, its been discussed before but I cant remember

Could be a costly try Daz if it does cause issues :dead: thats why I stuck to the correct offset tbh.
