rear you will need a spacer to reduce the 10ET52 down to ~ ET47
a spacer reduced ET by the thickness of the spacer

Thanks Bill,
It was a set of Gemballa Le Mans wheels , I was thinking the 40 had to be spaced out to 47 so thanks for clearing that up, i am delighted with the set up on my car with the 17 cups and dont want to upset it going to 18" however plenty guys running 18`s and are perfectly happy.

Yes, 40 might be okay in the rear but sounds small for the front.

Just to add some clarity here.... If you add a spacer, you are decreasing the offset. I.E. if you have 40 offset, and you add a 7mm spacer, you end up with 33 total offset.
