Hello,

I wanted to ask about low ET alloys fit on lowered Stilo.
I'm thinking to buy 25-60mm front and 20-50mm back lowering coilovers. I guess thats ok, but then i start thinking that Stilo should look great with audi a6 or a8
(18" RS8) wheels on.
I can only pull that with wheel adapters, and i would go for 20mm ones. Audi wheels are 45ET, so with adapters wheels would be 25ET.

How would it do with 25ET 18" 215/40 alloys on 60mm front 50mm back lowered car? I kinda worried that wheels would rub arches of the car, cousing damaged tyres and car arches.

Does any1 got any info about this? I saw few Stilos on net with porsche wheels on. And those wheels should be 45ET aswell, and prob with addapters...(lowered stilos afc)

so assuming your running 20mm spaces/wheel adapters then the et would be 25, which is not too bad, you may have to run some stretch or pull the arches a little

Those alloys are 8J, so i was thinking to put 215/40 tyres, a little stretch, but not too big, not rly a big fan of those
looked up on Tyrestretch page.

To be honest 215 isn't really any stretch, you could get some 195's depends really how close they are to the arches or run camber, so you have tuck and poke

i am running 215/35/18 tyres on a lowered silo. not sure of the ET though. think i lowered 45mm. no problem with clearance

So today, i went to test shock absorbers, was kinda thinking that back shocks are damaged, i was a bit surprised when mechanic said that i only need to change front ones
So now im thinking i should buy coils and dont bother with original shocks. With my budged i found theese coils on Germany ebay.

Still i want to be clear, its the first time when im trying to buy coils, so i need to be 100% sure, that im getting what i need. Will they fit perfectly?
(my car: Fiat stilo 5dr 1.6 16v Hatchback)
And do i need something else to buy for coilovers?

I run DTS coil overs on my jtd. Good kit bought off eBay germany. Cost about 350euro I think.
