According to others who have spoken directly to him, they were originally ET25, then due to brake clearance issues, changed them to ET15, but felt they "loooked like shopping trolly wheels" (I have no idea what he means by this and neither does the person who askedOriginally posted by DaveEsccos View Post
), he then changed them back to ET25, but has not got round to changing his website yet . I think he likes to confuse .

Just to pick up on that, Mike - oh, I think you made typo and meant to say "he then changed them back to ET25"?Originally posted by Mike Rainbird View PostAccording to others who have spoken directly to him, they were originally ET25, then due to brake clearance issues, changed them to ET15, but felt they "loooked like shopping trolly wheels" (I have no idea what he means by this and neither does the person who asked), he then changed them back to ET25, but has not got round to changing his website yet .

I phoned RSAlloys up last week, and just had a quick chat with them, explained I bought the wheels back in June '08 and wondered what the offset was as there had been some confusion. He said without a doubt ET25. Now, I'm not sure if that relates to just my set bought from then or from all those wheels produced after June '08. I don't know when they changed them although I got the impression it was in the earlier days of manufacturing?
Mike I've not come across the rubbing of the tyre on the spring cups but as we've discussed there is potential for brake clearance issues.
Much respect for the review though. I think any company producing wheels for this market of expensive cars are likely to be under scrutiny but I've been perfectly happy with the service and quality I have received.

Sneaky edit there, Mike!Originally posted by Mike Rainbird View PostWhat are you on about !

To be perfectly honest, I don't know what springs I'm running but the shocks are GAZ. I have 225/40 profiles on Goodyear F1 rubber

So basically, because the guy doesn't understand offsets - we're none the wiser.

If they think ET25 is better for fitting bigger brakes then they've obviously made them to accomodate bigger brakes but have actually made them at ET15 but because their understanding of offsets is 'off'...they've said they're ET25!!Originally posted by Mike Rainbird View PostSo basically, because the guy doesn't understand offsets - we're none the wiser.
Sorted! :P
No, on a serious note, the guy did question why I wanted to know and asked what brakes I wanted to fit. I said APs and he said his friend had fitted a set and fitted 5 or 10mm spacers.
In my case he's told me ET25, but if I order some brakes and discover they're actually ET15, is it really going to matter? In theory I would have more clearance from the calliper and require a smaller spacer? I guess the issue is if you can get very small hubcentric spacers?Comment

If he makes them et15 to start with, they will clear the suspension, and brakes....no brainer!Comment
