Default Just to clear up a few things...

Not to upset any one but i have recieved some info that contradicts what we have heard, i spoke with a specifeic rep for BBS to day and he personally said an 8.5 is best suited with a 9.5 instead of a 10, in the rear. He did say it would be ok to have a 10 though, but it would look very aggressive and would not be the best choice IHO. I myself purchased the BBS RS-GT in 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 My price which I assume many will not find is $3000, a GRAND less than Tire Rack. For a good price contact Anthonymv@aol.com! here is a pic.

I went with the Diamond Black finish thatat you see in the picture.
Also, I think that would be a terrible setup, I dont even know if it is physically possible! This is because I believe a 9.5 is way to large for the front. But who knows... BDiddy has a Dub in the rear and a 19 in the front!!!

I'm always glad to see people posting things they believe ...

A 19x9.5 does, in fact, work on the front of the 350Z, but the offset would need to be in the 25-32mm range. A 19x9.5 +38 puts the wheel right on the suspension upright. You could use this with a 5mm spacer, would work fine if the BBS wheels will allow you to use a 'shanked' style lug nut.

I believe I'll have a beer...
