i saw an add in a vw mag this weekend saying that the classic wheels like brms and empi,s have now got a more suitable offset and improved quality, anyone know what the offset is? i loved the look of my van with its empi,s

The offset was somewhere around 17-22mm ET so they stuck out miles so hopefully the new versions will have 30 or so mm ET.

why don't you ring up the company selling them and ask them?

i do not trust them, they sold me the last set saying they were suitable, and that the tyres were correct. it was a lot of HORSE.
