Below is an ad for a set of wheels for sale on a Ford site I frequent. If anyone's interested then PM me your contact details and I'll pass them on.

They're 9x16 et15 The wheels are nice and straight with no kerbing though the laquer is starting to lift on the polished rims in places.
Price wise i was looking for around £400 which ain't bad considering they're nearly a grand new.
P.S i'm in blackburn.

...Yes. Most decent sized Borbets are 9x16 ET15.

The rears were 215/40, fronts were 205/45 there (only because I needed new fronts and the 205's were cheaper, I would go for 215/40 all round generally), never scrubbed, would definitely scrub a (lowered) B2/B3 arch without a bit of work though.

Borbet A are my favourite rim on a German car.
I'm confused though. I thought only ET 37 with 4x108 would fit on B4's and the likes.
So these wheels would definitely fit something like my b4 80 which is lowered about 30 or 40mm?

Thx for the info

I'm not interested in the Borbets, just looking for the max size to fit under B4 arch's.

I've just posted a picture of my old, lowered B4 with exactly the same size wheels... How much more of a definitive answer do you want?

The ET just determines how far inside the arch the wheel sits, there's bags of room in the arch with standard wheels...
