Hi guys

Looking into getting some Rota D1s for my 1991 FC3 turbo II.

I was going to get 7.5 front and 8.5 rear, the lowest andf recomended (from Rare Rims) offset is an et35, would these fill the arches width wise ?

I have 8J ET34 front and 9J ET37 rear, and they fill the arch fine with 5mm spacers - they don\'t look mega beefy like you see on some, but they fill the arches nicely, but I guess it depends on what sort of \'fill\' you want! They might not fill the arches completely unless you had some spacers, but anything over about 5mm requires hubcentrics with the studs. Hope that helps a bit! :driving
