New wheels,
I have a dilema, the wheels I want are no longer made, and haven't been for about 1 year, but have found some brand new ones of peugeot 4 stud fitment but ET25, I was told I want about ET30, so was thinking use the above with 8mm spacers/longer studs to suit, I'm on coilovers so have a bit of extra clearance at front anyway.
These are for my 2wd sapphy cos.
I really like the wheels, your thoughts on the above or if someone else has done the above would be most appreciated, thanks

I keep getting the ET bit the wrong way round ha ha!!
The wheels are the wolfrace katana, to be sprayed in gloss black, found HRS337 is almost identical, have since found out wolfy are redoing these, was talking to the guy with the order sheet who's just ordered some from the factory, should be jan/feb so may just have to wait a bit, will be in et40.

I like them, was very lucky finding a set, as rang around for 4 hours today tracking a set down.
They do as said go under different names DEZENT PANIK, BSA, Wolfrace katana, plus 2 others, I love them didn't want compy as done to death, now the bloody tyres I want are out of stock, got 2 but need 2 more, typical, Hankook Ventus Evo V12 K110 btw, in 235/40x17.

Dont like them wheels at all also on et 38 id run atleast a 5mm spacer or will look even worse and with coilovers and 235 tyres will rub the inside of the arch..
The 235.40s wouldnt go on et25 wheels either with out mods..
The ideal et on a saph in a 17 with 235s would be anything between et 30-33 maybe as low as et 28 max without mods..
cheers danny

Arches are being modded, if necessary will have the wheels back faced as it's free, will have to see how it goes, have used 235 on 7 j before without problems, and know a few who do also.

You can get 235s in the rear of a saph but the ofset is mainly what determines this..

Mind you I even hate CSL replicas on e46 M3's. Not sure what it is about m3's in particular for me but anything other than STD just makes them look like a replica.

It's a bonus if it looks like a rep, thieves will go after "real" ones then, I like them and that is the only thing that matters to me, I'm not being a sheep and getting a particular wheel just because everyone else has got them.
I'm defo doing the skyline type rear lights this year, ie 2 round lights each side instead of the std ambers, and have bought some marker lights to go on the bumpers, but that's more due to living on a bad bend.
I think the focus looks really nice with them on, maybe it's my age(45)!!

I despair.... why are my favourite cars so often fitted with such utterly shit wheels?!
They're hideous! If you can't do 'different' well just stick to Comps and OE wheels please
