Re: broken turbo?

Re: Opinions

18" wheels

hello all, i have been looking at 18s for ages now and i have finally made my decision, i am opting for TSW Paces but i can only find them with an et of 35, does this mean that i will have to put spacers on as i want them to fit as flush to the outside of the arches as possible.

cheers matt.
