cheers
lovely alloys mate. they alloys willl fit
no chance on a stock body
i run 8.5j et 30 front *just* and 9j et 30 rear with archs rolled under
doh. some body hit me with a big stick. sorry. i was way off he he.
flare your archs and make em fit!!!
I would say a 35 is about the widest off-set your going to get under without rolling or cutting,
I ran 32 on the back of one of my FD\'s and had to sort the lip,
I have been told that there are companys that will machine the back of your rim to give you a lower off-set and was told Elite wheels in Rainham Essex could do this but have no personal experiance to pass on.
i took 5mm off the back of some rear wheels i got cheap, and 3mm off the front, to make them the same offsets i have on my other two sets. I\'ve tracked them hard and they are fine. Not sure i\'d want to take any more than that though...

p.s. offsets are a certain amount on a certain car for a reason....putting silly offsets on your car just cos they look good is a fast way to make your car handle like ****, tramline badly over white lines or bumps, etc etc
if they dont fit when i have rolled and flared the arches then they are getting sold tbh, i wouldnt even consider letting someone machine the backs of these, the cash i get should buy me some nice wheels for the RX hopefully
i carnt see the pics of the wheels but i know a few people run low offsets.
i think ENVYD is running ET12
