anyone got 8x16 -32 offset wheels

I have spotted a set of wheels on ebay but they are 8x16 -32 offset
will these fit without altering the arches?

I plan on running 265 75 16 tyres on standard suspension but don't really want to be fitting extra width arches if I can help it and wondered if anyone had the same setup. don't want them to look too "Carlos Fandango"

but want something that fills the arches a bit better than the standard boosts
Thanks

In the UK if the tyres stick out of the arches it is illegal (Construction & Use regs, not MoT). I'd have thought they would be pretty close to sticking of the stock arches.

They shouldn’t protrude any further than the arches as above, if they do you need to fit wider arches to match so the new wider archers are qual to or a little wider than the new tyres. Play Stupid Games, Win Stupid Prizes.

Et -32 will stick way out, even with 265s on.

Et0 is about as far as you can go and stay legal with standard arches and 265s.

Boosts are et33 so an et-32 will be 55mm further out on each side

Can you share a link, Marsie? I'd hazard a guess that they're ET32 rather than -32. Darren

Yep, those would definitely stick way out from standard arches!

-32 would be a bit too fandango even for me.

ET0 is a nice compromise IMO.

I had 16x10 ET -32s on the 110 but was running 35 inch tyres and 50mm extended arches.
Would look a bit odd with just 265s on there..
