Hi,

I've tried searching on fitments based on stock suspension (non JCW, sport, etc.) and offsets, but to no avail.

Will 17 x 7 Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2s fit better in a et45 or et50? I'd like to replace the heavy S-Lites as, from what I hear, are stock et48s. I don't plan on lowering it. but would like to ensure no adverse effects.

Thanks guys!

 

A 7" wide wheel at a 45mm offset is preferred over the 50mm.
The 50mm will decrease the room between the inner wheel barrel and the front strut assembly.

I was also told the same thing. I am getting the same wheels for my JCW.
45 will work best.

A good source for information on this wheel and fitment issues is Dan at Mach V Motorsports. He is a vendor here on NAM.
Here is the link to his website

Or you can look him up on NAM.

 

Good taste in wheels - I'm ordering the same wheels for my 09 MCS but I'm going for 40mm - I'd like my tires a bit more outside and there is plenty of room with a 7" wheel. Basically going from 48mm offset (stock web spoke wheels) to 40mm will move my tires 1/3" outside - from what I see I have plenty of room available.
