are they 16" or 17"? width? offset?
BBS are great wheels, but finding them used in good offsets is impossible or expensive. i like the design and itll look good but from what it looks like they will fit like crap. youll end up running huge spacers to make them look right.
up to you really, worth it or not?

Size and offset? And if all you're going for is looks, then you're barking up the wrong tree with BBS. Those are lightweight track day wheels. You should send those bad boys up my way, if they're a 17x9 or 10 :biggrin:

I believe the offset is going to be way to high

= sunken look = need to spend more on spacers

If you're buying wheels, just avoid having to buy spacers also, just go for some nice offset and width

If you're 5 lug too, there are quite a few BBS LM look-alike wheels which come in good that you might be interested in.

Look into XXR 521's, Linea Corse Lemans or Varrstoen 1.1.2...
