Offset

Post by poloboyben »

Cheers for the reccomendation on the dubmiester site. Its really good. Am looking into buying the Borbet e design euro style wheels.

Is it a matter of buying these and they will fit straight on, or is there a choice of offset. Its does say offset sizes 17 or 38. Which size would i want on my mk5 polo. Might be talking rubbish here but dont know anything about wheels.

The dubmeister had the borbet e alloys which i was interested in but were offset ET17 which i have heard wont fit onto my polo. Is this true?

I have spoke to the guy who tells me the ET38 arnt deep dished and therefore i am not interested. He did state that the ET17 are deepdished version but may not fit a polo. Will they? WHat modification may need to be done?
