   I have some 25mm hubcentric spacers the type that bolt directly to the hub.
   
   I also have some lenso RS5's which are Et38 with 195/45/15" tyres and are 6.5j wide.
   
   Cars lowered around 35-40mm, the wheels would be ET13 with the spacers i believe.
   
   Will they fit ok or scrub on the outer arches?

   im sure that the saxo offset is 15-18.
   
   best thing to do is to fit them and see if they scrub anywhere

   youd end up et 13 i think and on a 6.5 you should be ok
   it will probably be rather close to the arm but thats fine

   they will fit fine.
   
   you will have more clearance on the inside and outside of the wheel than you would with a standard vts wheel so you certainly wont have any issues with rubbing anywhere.

   I have them on the car now and they fit perfectly.
   
   No rubbing on any part of the car what so ever.
   
   Cheers
