hi
i was wondering the offset of the 190e 16v?
I was going to put 17in on with a 40 mm offset.
Do i need spacers? also is the bolt pattern 5x112?
thanks

the stock rims for a 2.3-16 measure 7Jx15 ET44 with a 5x112mm bolt pattern.

an ET40 will likely be too much and will cause your rim to sit in quite a bit (as the stock ones do). if you go to a smaller offset, the rim will sit further out and will give your car a more aggressive stance. providing your rim doesn't stick out past your fender. this also depends on the width of the rim you're planning on using.

my rims are 8Jx16 ET34 and they fit perfectly
