hi again

jop, those are the universal hub adapters!
the wheels have 60mm offset, with the adapters 35.
no rubbing issues until now, but i had nobody on the rear seats till now, so i cannot tell you for sure.

but anyway, i have to bring the car to our technical control institution (für german speaking members: Technischer Uberwachungsverein) and they will put about 150KG sand bags in my trunk and then we will see if it rubs.
if yes, i wont be allowed to drive the car until i solved this problem, so you can be sure when i am done, there will be no rubbing issues at all
i will inform you!

greets

it's good to know that the German government actually makes you do such inspection to ensure road safety for the driver and other drivers...can you imagine how many cars would not be driven if they actually had these inspections over here?

Real nice drop, looks good. I think the rims would look better if they had polished lips like this one, it seem to have same tires as yours
