Are you sure about the rears? Some people (including myself) have a 10.5 +22 in the rear and its ALOT closer to the fender then yours. From the pictures the rears look like +33 and up offset in the back. Almost where OEM sit.

Also, I think I remember getting quotes on those wheels and I never bought them because I could never find the correct offsets - they were always to high.

I do love those wheels tho!

Actually you're right... The rears are +30 in the back which is why they're not sitting flush. I had to confirm with the shop I got the wheels from. I have some spacer en route to fix the gap, I'll be sure to post up pics when they're installed.

DannyGT · 02-17-2010, 11:54 AM

With the rears flush, that setup is going to look sick!

Reminds me of Phoenix Power's 370z.

Hmm thats definately not the recomended BBS fitment. did your wheels have the antislip coating on the inside where the tire seats?

It should be the same spec as the GTR actually

20x10.5 +20
20x9.5 +40

GT Motoring is an authorized BBS distributor, so if you guys have any questions on fitment, feel free to hit us up. We have these LMs in silve and gunmetal too! LOVED them on my R35 GTR

Who actually goes with the "recommended" setups? I know I don't.

haha, true. well WE like this fitment too. Its not tire stretchin drift car spec, but a safe yet good fitment if you follow our spec. Any shop that sold him anything LESS agressive than the manufacturer of the wheel suggests i would question their know how a little

OMGWTFBBQ · 02-17-2010, 03:07 PM

Either way, 20" BBS LM's. I took a look at their price tag. Dang! That's a hard number to swallow.

Yah, its definitely not the recommended offsets, but for the price that I got the rims at, it really was a steal. Nothing a set of hubcentric spacers can't fix.

dszombiex · 02-17-2010, 06:52 PM

I like it. Looks clean.

speedworks · 02-17-2010, 07:39 PM

I like the look, but it definately needs some spacers to acheive the right offset. What was the rockin deal? Any others available?

The deal was all four rims for half the price of brand new ones, the catch was they were slightly used. The shop is local to socal, so if you want the contact info, PM me

Looks great, I love BBS wheels... comment was made already but I agree that the tires look a shade too small for the wheels... what are the sizes front and rear ?
