Before and after pictures/BBS LM wheels
Very pleased with the results. Spent a ton of time researching the look I wanted and went BBS LM.... A classic beauty. 15mm spacers in rear, 7mm in front. 315 Pilot Sports in the rear. Bilstein suspension.

looks great. Did you need the spacers to eliminate any rubbing out back, or did the 315s clear just fine. Assuming 11" rears and 8.5s up front?

used 15mm in rear and 7mm in front. I went with the recommendation to avoid that.
