thanks for the support guys ![Smile](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/smile.gif)
I would recommend 15mm spacers in the rear. as Gene said the offsets in the rear are ET32. these are the same rear offsets as the 128s I had before, and I ran 15mm in the rear bringing it to an offset of ET17, pretty flush with the rear fenders

Newwyll...you're sure I won't have any rubbing in the back with 15mm spacers?
Thanks for the help!
