    Hey guys another question regarding wheels. Looking at these Borbet A reps found here: 15 INCH 15X8 DRIFT BORBET STYLE A , BMW,VW, ALFA, EURO (eBay item 270772405783 end time 05-Jul-11 23:03:36 AEST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats

    With an ET of 15 will they fit all round? I can imagine them being fine on the rears but the fronts would have to be a bit deeper wouldn't they? Perhaps ET20-25? Any advice would be great!

    theyll be right, although real Borbet A's (which you can actually buy for a couple hundred more then those...) do not clear front vr6 brakes without either shaving the caliper down a little or a small spacer (like 7mm or something iirc)

    If anything id want a smalelr et at the back to get the stretch poke tuck look

    Yeah I'm getting them directly where they're made for a fair bit less than that eBay listing, was just curious.
