Incorrect offset.. machine the wheel?
 
HI there is a wheel that a buyer has ET35 (A4) however my correct offset is Et45 (ET48 prefered) A3.

Has anyone ever machined the wheel to another offset?

Does this work is it reliable?

thx

RE: Incorrect offset.. machine the wheel?
 
You may very well find that the 35mm offset may fit and actually result in a preferable appearance (tighter fit between the shoulder of the tire and the fenderwell). If you have more than a centimeter (10 mm) gap between your a tire mounted on the OEM rim (ET45), then you will have enough room to mount that same tire on a rim with a ET35 offset. That is actually a pretty common offset on these cars.
