Fine on the back, tap the arches now and again on the front, but its fairly low and the shocks are hammered!

those wheels i talk about are also revolution so it might be the same as you (any possible way to check if yours are et30 also???)
but can you drive it with those tyres or is it to bad

yeah, they are ET30 then, they are only available in that offset as far as im aware.
