does anyone know what the offset difference is between the 124s and 166 M6? Currently I run 166 M6 as my summer wheel and 124s as my winter and want the 124s flush like the 166....

Thanks

Oh sorry. I accidentally linked it to 167 wheels.
Here's the right link for the 166 wheels: http://www.angelfire.com/biz7/bmwhee.../style_166.htm

Ok guys I have been trying to figure this out but I'm still not sure what I need. I currently have style 246 rims with sports and would like to make them flush without rubbing. Specs oon wheels are 18 x 8 ET 20 all around. Anyone know what size spacers I need?

Thanks!
