Hi!

Just bought some nice BBS RM 15" ET33 wheels 'coz I was sick and tired of TE37.

Plan was to chrome the bolts...

...and polish the lips!
Image

But that is not 10/10 so I took of the lips.

Now my problem are new lips. I want to buy new ones but I'm not sure if 1,5" lip will still fit to my EG. Inner rim is 6" + 1,5" lip is 7,5" wheel. But ET is 33 so...
I just can't find any EG post or topic so if you have any idea...


THANK YOU!!!

There's so many variables such as ride height, camber, fenders rolled or not... the safe bet would be to bolt one back together for testing the fitment and put it on the front and rear and measure. :thumb:

Well if you make it wider by increasing the width outboard of the center line you effectively change the offset. So if its 30mm offset now then you add 1 inch more then you would subtract 24mm from you offset of 30mm. That leaves plus 6mm offset. It would poke a little you would need camber arms and some fender rolling for sure. Also you would have to stretch the tires. I want to install 15x7 +10 on my eg and I think its going to be pretty tight fit in there.
