You may get it to clear with fender rolling. The total width isn't the issue, it's the offset. The same size with an et of 30 might clear without rolling.

I hear you, but these wheels I am considering only come in 20 ET & 40 ET...

So I dont have much choice really.

Either :

1) I forget the idea of these wheels

2) Hope that I can clear 32.05mm by rolling the fenders

3) Or eventually get some 15mm spacers / adapters made and use the ET 40 wheels, but for that to work I would need to find out if these wheels have pockets ?!?
