need some new wheels and the ones i really want are only available in et40

The motorsport shop and TSW are telling me they would not be suitable on my nova (1.2 mk2 40mm drop on gmax springs rolled rear arches)

at the moment my wheels are ET42 and theres no scrubbage !?

im thinkin they will be ok ?

does anyone run Et40 or less wheels ?!

i would have thought since u have 42mm and no probs especially since the arches are rolled 40 wud be ok since its only 2mm difference

especially since some people on here have 38mm offset and run them

Yer i'm thinking the same too...

The car is only lowered 40mm and the rar arches are rolled, the front r not but my wheels hav never caught on the front. the didn't catch on the back really unless you had 5 people in the car and hit a bad bump, but i got the rolled anyway.

Has anyone got ET40 or less wheels ? and can give me smoe feedback ?
