im guna hijack this thread, saves me starting a new one.

what is the ET of VTS wheels?

ive just bought some new wheels that are ET11, im not 100% but i think VTS wheels are ET15?

so mine will stick out more than the VTS wheels do.

does anybody know how much more they will stick out?

thanks,

rick.

the J has no reference to the width of the wheel
it is the height of the bead.
