Plus go too far and you'll have to mod sliding door so it clears tyre when you open it. I have Merc wheels (offset 25) and thats the limit without having to mess with other stuff.

My van came with Mercedes 16" with an ET46!! They needed longer studs and 19mm spacers. Not safe and I don't recommend it. Now gone back to steelies, which are the future ;)

Agree on steels. Plus I prefer the look to be honest. Mine are like balloon tyres now but they still clear sliding door. Speedo is now bang on too. Good cornering and excellent on a long run.

I'm also loving the steels however a very reasonably priced set of Slk alloys are calling me....

The specs are 15 et37 H2. Plans are to keep stock ride height and add some off road / balloon tyres.

Will these fit with longer studs and if I want the backs to stick out a bit more, spacers???

It's for a Doka btw.
