What a fucking spastic, the whole point in this exercise was to get closer to factory offset without spacers so you go and order wheels that need spacers? 
 
Fucking hell you are a complete remedial you really are.

and as it happens the brakes wouldnt fit anyway with et35 wheels so would end up being spaced regardless, these will still be closer to factory then the ones i have

if you want them, just shim them with 5mm spacers if you want perfect offset

this chestnut again 
 
just rang tweeks, theres another delay with the wheels, already been waiting 4+ weeks, they are cast and painted but looking at another 4 weeks. 
 
not sure wether to wait, or get something else, can get the turinis in white or silver no problem 
 
or something else 
 
or wait

I think you should cancel.  
 
Get some wheels that are the correct fitment and also look nice.

it was mainly for the weight that i wanted them, could get them silver or white still... 
 
i still dont think white will look that bad 
 
only other real alternative is the team dynamics pro race 1.2 but iv never been keen on that wheel

You could get them in silver but they'd still be the wrong offset.  
 
You may as well wait for the anthra ones because they look better.  
 
There must be other light wheels out there   
 
 
ps. white on silver just doesn't look right to me. White needs to go on a flat colour, like black/blue/red/etc.
