What do you guys think of running 45 profiles on a 306, any disadvantages?

Also what's standard et for the gti 35?

They look far too small, will be uncomfortable and more expensive. I don't really see why you would? Standard offset is 15-18

Well the first 2 still apply in that case... Won't look right at all unless you're seriously low. That's 106 size
