I think they are ET35 too. They are definately 5.5j. They are exactley the same size as teh GT steel wheels.

While were on the subject of BBS RA's anyone know what wide and offset the 14" ones are? I think the vw ones are ET38? but I have different ones with a lower offset and what appears to be a deeper dish to them. just wondering if they were wider wheels too.

I cant read what it said on them as they've been refurbed and repainted.

thanks pettsy.you wouldnt know what offset mine are would you?

they are lower, stick out more and use longer bolts than the other 4" ra's
they may also be 6.5" wide, but most probably 6"
