Default Can ET 38 fit our cars?

If so what spacer is required to make wheels with a ET 38 offset fit? The wheels are 17x8 BBS RCs. Thanks.

No they won't fit. The offset is way too low.

the 38 offset makes the wheel stick out too far.... the lower the #, the further out it will stick.... you would need a "negative spacer".. if there were such a thing.

I had 16*7 with 35mm offset spoon wheels on the front of my S2000 at some point.... they handle better but rub if driving hard.....
