gonna take it in tomorrow, i thought the offset on all 4 wheels should of been the same, but when i got em with 2 ET43 and 2 ET35 i thought, well, the smaller numbers go on the back and the larger ET on the front, so they dont rub on the discs or anything, but still, if i do that, the direction of 2 of the tyres are facing the wrong way, al get em 2 sort it 2morrow

speak to the manager tell him u had car trouble coz they sold u the wrong size wheels. only when u took to a garage they pointed it out! and say if u are a good company u will replace the 2 et35 for the right offset.
