as always, your car looks incredible! What is the offset on those wheels? Love that stance and im trying to figure out what size spacers to go with.

Thanks!

Thanks mate :)

Haven't changed the offset, they're just standard GTD wheels painted a different colour. The only mods which affect the stance are the spacers (12m/20mm) and VWR springs.

The front splitter and colour coded skirts also make a big difference to the way it looks though.

By adding spacers you have changed the offset.

If the wheels are ET48 then adding the 20mm spacers make them ET28.

Looks awesome by the way. Are those standard 225 tyres or did you go for a 235 ?

Oh right, thanks baz. As you may have guessed I'm not a mechanic!

Yes tyres are standard 225/40/18 Micheling PSS.

Just got my VWR springs fitted yesterday and threw on my 20mm (rear) and 15mm (front) spacers. Hoping it will settle a little lower. Also thinking of dropping the front spacers down to 12mm as I feel it pokes a little more than I'd hoped.

Although, I'll probably be going for 19's soon to fill the arch better. May test fit my old HRE's from my A4 (19x9.5) to see how they look.
