What offset do you need to run 8x17" on the front and 9x17" on the rear of
a E30 M3 that has been lowered by 30 mm?
1992 clio 1.8 16V Good
1998 Subaru Impreza Turbo Terzo Great
1987 M3 Diamond Black Awesome (Now awesomer with Billys & Eibach)

I'd go for around ET10 front and ET20 rear, but you'll likely need to roll arch lips depending on tyre sizes.
