Excessive tramlining, increased strain on CV joints, unpredictible handling under heavy braking.

Offsets on the Irmscher wheels vary from ET49 through to whatever.

Steinmetz are ET38-42 on most applications.

I had 15's et38 with 60mm drop... 45 profile tyres...

arches needed knocking out, but other than that was great!

handling was faultless, but could of been due to coilovers...

no ill effects, tramlining, or uneven wear on tyres!

when i had ET38s under heavy braking my car shook to fook, put on ET45s and the shaking went away, the handling felt lighter and better and the scrubbing went away, triple threat.
