Bbs Rs-gt
So im looking for new wheels and I think im going with 19' BBS RS-GTs in diamond black with a polished lip. First, does anyone one have these? Any pics? They come 19x8.5 and i would like to stagger it with 8.5 front and 9.5 in the rear. Anyone seen 19x9.5 in these?

35 will fit very snug on the rear, you'll probably have to roll your fenders with that offset....or you could run a 265 rear tire and give yourself an additional 5mm of clearance versus the 275 rear tire

I've always liked that style back to my first set of Epsilon mesh wheels on an old Trans Am (anyone remember those?). If the BBS does not work out, I have a set of TSW Kyalamis on my 8, in 18" and they have a 20" fitment also - a lot cheaper, and a somewhat similar look. discount tire direct has them

you can run a 265 tire and roll your fenders and be just fine... but 265/35 is too tall and 265/30 is a bit on the short side... if you don't mind the tire size difference and dont care about spedo this is probably the way to go
you could run a 255/35/19 rear tire which is almost identical is size to our OEM tire size. You wouldn't have to worry much about clearance but the tire would look a bit stretched

I was going to get them until I saw them on an 8. No chance of me getting them after that, they just didn't look good.
