yes M6 will fit fine, most members will recc and prefer the M6 offsets...
M5 and M6 offsets Front ET12
M5 offset rears ET 28
M6 offset rears ET 17
***the 11 mm difference pushes the wheel flush to the fender in the rear....that's why some members will add 10-12mm spacers to their 166's with M5 offsets...

ok geneatals thanks for the response man, so should I do m6 et12 and m6 et17 I have the 19" tires on 128 so I guess would be no rubbing or anything right ? would be the same thing as the interior of the wheel just the back a little bit flush to the car
why not get 167's? or you want something different from the 5 spoke look...
