Default BBS LM reps. hmmm

so Im looking to buy a set of wheels for the summer and I have always loved BBS lm's (Im a former VW guy). But anyway I have been looking at some posts and searching alot. And I think I have found the wheels that im going to buy. but I need some info about offsets. The wheels Im looking at are staggered 18x8 et35 front and 18x9 et38 rear. My question is will these offsets work? thanks Jim http://http://www.modbargains.com/pr...ype_279_Wheels I forgot to mention that I will also be lowering the car in the spring. nothing drastic. just 1" or so

I would imagine so. I run 18x8.5 with a 35mm offset up front.
