Pre 87 then the ET will be in the 20s & you need wheels with this offset or later wheels (ET50ish which S2 wheels will be) with spacers. Spacer width will depend on wheel widths & to a certain extent tyre size.

Whats up with the teledials? Teledials rock when they're refurb'd. Just was wondering why you were replacing them.

Isn't ET20ish & ET50ish close enough then :mrgreen: Depends on where the wheels are sourced from & final widths anyway.
