MV2 & Style 224 sizes?

Post by silverdevill » Tue Oct 24, 2017 1:30 pm

Hi guys, been looking at changing my MV2's to Z4M style 224's on my E85 3.0si and was wondering what the width/offsets are on both sets, just so i have some sort of comparison on how they'll look/fit when my Bilstein B8's and H&R springs arrive (if i keep the MV2's i'll use spacers to bring them out a touch after she's lowered, not sure if the 224's will need spacers as i dont know what the offsets/widths are!).... anyone running a similar setup on their cars that can post some pics?....thanks guys :D

Hiya bud

MV2's are style 135? I think? If so, then standard Zed fitment:
18x8J ET47
18x8.5J ET50

The 224's
18x8J ET42
18x9J ET30

Can't provide a comparison for you but hopefully some of that helps. IMO 224 don't need the spacers, especially so if you're lowering.

Cheers, Kis.

I went from MV2s to 224s. I had spacers on the MV2's (20mm rear, 15mm front) - no need for spacers on the 224 rears as they are offset and fill the haunches nicely and personally I don't think the fronts need them either :thumbsup:
