Small question, whts the different if the offset is ET17 or ET 28. i dont understand the difference? how does it affect my car, looks? how?
ET17 will give the wheels a wider stance. It's a difference of 11mm.

Are the 166 wheels made in Germany or are they Chinese made. I am aware that they are made by BBS. Are they cast or forged? Thanks guys

I'm taking myself off this GB, nobody is interested in this so I took the plunge and ordered it through Garry at
BMW of Newport.

Is this group buy going on still?
If so 2 questions, did we determine whether or not we can get the ET 17 rear wheels with this order or not?

Also if and once we get 7 people to sign up, how long is the wait?

I waited 6 weeks on a set of rims that I ordered, then after I paid for them I come to find out there was a back order, so after 6 weeks I still have no rims, turned out to be a waste of time.
