OK so I've lowered my 86 and now the standard wheels are a bit too sunken in behind the bodywork for my liking (especially the rears, see picture below).
So I thought I could just get some spacers but apparently that's not a great idea because I'm going to be using this car for track days and drifting (and its going to need to be about a 20mm extension). So it seems like the better option is to get some wheels with a lower offset so that they stick further out... but I'm really struggling to find any that have a low enough offset and that are the right size and PCD etc.
It seems like the old generation Audi TTs had a 5x100 PCD and 17 inch wheels, but I've not been able to find any after market wheels for them with less than et35 offset, which is only 13mm further out than the stock car so not really enough.
So anyone got any suggestions for wheels to look at? Also if there's a better way of doing this than looking for a lower offset then I'm all ears!
EDIT: OK so I've realised I can get away with slightly wider wheels and keep the same tyres, say 7.5 inch rather than the 7 inch stock wheels. So that means I only need an offset of about 35mm, which is good as I can find plenty of them. However, that is good for the rear but will changing the width and offset on the front wheels upset things at all? Struggling to find many wheels that come in 17x7.5 and also have an offset that would extend the rear and keep the front's the same as they are now... but I'm not sure how important it is to try keep them the same...
