the offset will be spot on with spacers. standard is et35 speedlines are et49 so with 15mm spacer your offset would be et34 so its more or less spot on.

thats why you use spacers to make it the correct offset. 16s look fine on lupos

Thats what i was meaning JR, by adding spacers it will surley mess up the handling on them??

Deep dish 15's and slammed may be the better option

using spacers would do shit to the handling as it would be the same as standard and the wheels would only be an inch bigger so not much different there.

i agree some deep dish 15s or even 14s and slammed on its riggot would be a good way to go
