Stock Wheel Offset

Long shot, but does anyone happen to know the offsets of the stock wheels? Apparently Vorsteiner doesn't want to continue selling their V-FF 103 wheels at the current specs (+35, +42), but I'm not sure what the ideal fitment is then.

I'd like to just run the numbers myself and find a fitment that is only slightly aggressive over stock.

I guess I should have googled first...I honestly didn't expect it to be listed. Looks like it's 40 and 50.

Yeah +42 with a 10.5 wheel on the rear it will stick out a bit, that's probably why they don't want to continue to sell that set up I am guessing here...

Thanks!

I'm thinking a 10 +44 might be okay.

You didn't have to use spacers did you? I got an email from Vorsteiner saying they had to use 3mm spacers up front to clear the a-arm.
