Thanks for the positive comments guys!
They are "weanie 18's".....but I am happy with them.
I found a guy who was club racing and had them on his track car for one event. He decided to install a huge racing brake set up and they wouldn't fit. They are in excellent shape and I picked them up for about 50% of ordering them new!
glowone - Top pic is of the rear, and 2nd pic is of the front (sitting at the front).
Waiting on new tires to get here so I can mount them up!

it will be interesting to see what they look like once you do the PSS9s. I found the width of my stock wheels/offset on my 99 were too narrow once I lowered mine. 15mm spacers were needed. I would like to find a wheel 18 or 19 that is wide enough to fill the fender wells w/o spacers. I would need stock size + the 15mm to get this result with a 18in wheel.
I really like the design of these BBS wheels - mount them up and take some pics for me.

Oh....I see what you are saying now.
A little more agressive offfset would prob work fine to push them out a bit.
Unfortunately, BBS only builds the stock ones for this wheel...unless you want to custom order for BIG $$$$$$$.
Hey ....you live just up the road (i'm in Roswell/Alph).....after I get them on, let's get together for a beer one day, talk cars, and you can check them out in person!

on the c4s, you're able to fit 12"/315/25/19s on there, but with those bbs 18" wheels... i'm betting your rears are pretty narrow and not even 11".
sure you got a great deal, but why bother getting wheels that don't really fit all that great?

They are a full 11"+, I saw them mounted on the car, and I thought they looked great. I'm happy, so that's "Why I Bothered"
