Anyone running 15x6.5 ET21 or similar

Hi guy's

Looking for some advice with regards to this setup, anyone have something similar or do you if this setup would work without rolling arches? Car is lowered on coilovers.

Currently the rims are 15x6.5 ET36 but would be using adapters, was thinking 15mm up front as that is the smallest I could go, on the rears I am thinking 20/25mm if that is possible, car is a mk1 cabrio.

Thanks

PS: Please post a pic if you have any.

you might get away with ET21 as they're 6.5", on my cab i had ET24 7" wheels and i think that was as low offset as i could go without some arch work and/or low profile tyres

Thanks mate, I have the sportline with wider arch flares so hopefully it will be ok.
