in 2cv, ET kind a matters only in front. I have been hear that if you use
GS wheels (center of wheel is 5mm more in), your bearings does not
least more than 20 000km. I dont know if its true, I have 6mm spacers
and longer bolts on my AzuSuper. Then it depense in what kind a use car
is.. if you drive less than 5000km in year does not matter anything but
if you drive 15-20 000km/yr its quite anoying.

I would guess in VW wheels center of wheel is more out?
How these offsets go?

but you can't have GS rims on front 2cv arms, right? as far as I know, GS rims fit only on ami arms, which are different. so if there is a clearance problem with VW rims on 2cv arms, perhaps with ami front arms it's not.

Whit GS wheels arm is not broblem. I think its (almost) similar in Ami too.
Broblem is steering rod, this is different in Ami super. whit spacers GS
wheels fit (streerin need to be limited a bit)

This seems to be the easiest solution. It's only around 1cm spacer...And it is really easy to move away 1cm on each front arm!
