its the same as fitting 10mm spacers to std s2 alloys.
so basically you will not be able to go low, or if the wheels are wider than 6j then you may not even be able to fit them unless you chop some arch out

I have 7x16" ET30 on mine, but its only about 25mm lower than standard.

What rim size are these?

i'l give you a rough idea, mines a mk3 xr3i with 7 1/2 x 16's with et 25 and lowered 40mm, needs arches rolled and some camber to avoid wasting the tires and front wings!

not ideal unless you mod the arches, but you could maybe get them skimmed.
