Looking at some veemans, highest offset they do is et43, anyone fitted wheels a similar size? Did they fit and not look ridiculous?

I’m all for a wider stance but not a stupid stance aha.

Cheers, Cam

Will fit no probs and not look ridiculous at all. I run same size. But depending on how low you are and tyre size etc, you may get some rubbing. I occasionally do with a car full of people. Tbh though I wish I'd gone for 8.5J or even 9

et43 on an 8" rim is fine unless you are lowered drastically. Just stick to 225 width tyres.
 
If your car is the one in the photo, that’ll be too low for an 8” wide and ET43 wheel.
 
Hi cheers for your replies, sorry forgot to mention my S38p is sitting on H&R springs (25mm)

I’m seeing a lot of mixed reviews on that size wheel and ET fitting without any rubbing issues. Really want to get this right before purchasing them.

Wheels are actually 18” 8J ET42,
So you guys reckon these will fit without any rubbing issues even when driving hard?
