Slight tuck on front (7.5J I'd say ET30), a little poke on the back on a 9N
It's all personal choice though and the compromise between actually using the car and it looking good.

30mm on the front (7J).
I'd guess at 20mm on the 8.5J
It might take a bit of playing though.

Do you know what ET they are pip? Got any pics with your 20mm spacers and those wheels? Was thinking out puttin 20s on with the comps but think they might stick out way to far lol Looking good by the way. It defo needs a good clean lol

i'd say 15mm spacers would be perfect. 20mm is ok for shows for that extra poke, but it then sits a good 10mm outside the arch, with about 3mm of tread showing. i'm guessing there the same offset as your comps (off the same car)
