:( :roll: the wheels i have got are off a audi a3 polished 5 1/2jx15 et34 wrapped in 165/50/15's,
Venom motorsport is where i am ordering the fk pcd adpators from they surgest the smallest thickness of 20mm. they said this would give me a et of 14 with the adaptors on and they are worried i willl have scrubbing or the tyre will be sticking out a bit. i have had the car lowered on coilovers and not yet had the camber and tracking done, so i was thinking when i have these wheels fitted surely when it then has the camber and tracking done it will stick to much out the arch?

My Pepperpots are 6jX15 with 25mm adaptors on 165/50 rubber. I had a bit of scrubbing at the back, so have lifted a tad and never had any problems since.

Judging by some online calculations your wheels will retract 1mm more than mine. Meaning you may suffer a tiny bit, but nothing major by all means.

How low are you?
