like i said before you need to go to skulte.com you are looking for a custom job most likely here because you are wanting to change the bolt pattern on the adapter to fit those wheels. Ive done this already so i would know how this operates this sounds redicolous but i had to get 3.5 inch adapters for the front and 4inch adapters made for the rear to get my rims flush with my widebody mustang. H@R and all of these companies do make adapters but they don't usually do custom jobs for individuals so i wouldn't look these other suggestions. Its a little pricey but not to bad i think you get the first 2inches for like 100 then you have to add 20 dollars per inch after that on each adapter, its been awhile and my memory is failing me right now.
Another suggestion is to pick whatever wheel you want on your car i think it would look sick. Who cares what everyone else thinks there are alot of haterz on this site. Its funny as hell i bought some stern wheels that are the knock offs of the piaa wheels, i got hell for it on here. People were telling me how slow my car was going to be and all kinds of stuff i went to the track my first time ever in my life and put down a 14.3 with a bad 60ft time in a auto. My time would have made the top 20 for the fastest stock times. I got gyped thought because they consider my heavy *** wheels a mod lol.

I didnt know people would be so imature about this.

On another note, did BBS explain what aspect of the wheel wouldn't fit? Offset? Bolt Pattern? etc?

It has nothing to do with looking like a ferrari, it's more like looking like a Z with BBS wheels

well there are two things about the BBS wheel that would be tough. number one the bolt pattern only comes in 5X120, and 5X112, and I didnt see any info on the offsets. On another note, thank you for understanding my view on this wheel!

well i was surfing the net and it seems the come in 20"x8.5-larger
if you were to get the adapters to convert the lug pattern, your looking at a +25 spacer/adapter plate, so if you were to get theoretically a wheel that was, say, 20x9.5 +33-+25 fronts, you'd be (with the adapter/spacer) doing a 20x9.5 +8-+0; which I know for a FACT can fit on the 350Z; I am doing 19x10.5 +0 fronts and they fit fine; your rears would clear that set up even easier because the rear fender can accomodate much much more; granted your rear fenders are rolled being that they are 20" wheels that you may be pushing out a little wide--btw, a little wide is VERy VERY cool
I say figure the math and do it
