Expertise needed

Well when i attempted to get some new alloys i realised i was a complete noob at alloys

How do i know what my "PCD" and "ET" are?

The tyres i have now are 195/45/r15 - and they are 4 stud - polo 6n

Can anyone help?
Thanks

PCD is the stud diameter, 4X100 is what you need. Which means there's 4-studs with a diameter of 100mm between them (I THINK).

ET is offset, this tells you how far the wheels stick out from the hub, the lower the ET, the further they stick out from the hub and into the hub. 35-40 is the average offset. Anything below offers more poke, anything more is more tuck.

Ahh ok - your a sick guy!!!!
But erm...is there any way to find out my current ET - cause i like the way how it looks from the back - like its kinda out and looks big lol?

What wheels are they?

As Tim explained really.

The ET depends on the fitment of alloys you have.

Ahh ok - well the alloys i have currently are TSW R System ones - and i like the wideness and how it looks from the back - iam tryin to find ones similar to that tbh! but like another style of alloy
