Default No, you'd need -5mm spacers. ET30 sticks out 5mm more than ET35.
No they don't make negatively sized spacers.

"No they don't make negatively sized spacers."

Bummer!

That would have solved so many problems...

You can only decrease the ET with spacers ( ie: push the wheel out by the spacer width ).
You cannot increase the ET on a wheel.
Cheers.
