Default BBS LM rims on 350Z

Sent an email to BBS a couple days ago asking about 350Z fitments for various BBS rims. They responded saying only that they were making LM rims in 19x9x18ET front and 19x10x25ET rear. (Yowsers!) They were also kind enough to attach 3 giant, uncompressed photos adding up to 14 megs in my inbox. I shrunk them down a bit and compressed them. Here you go:







Why do they always have to make such wide rims with smaller-than-desired offsets... especially on their LM series?

I think those wheels look good on any car. I wonder why Tirerack, who has rights to sell BBS in America doesn't have fitment for the Track Model.

Tire Rack is only permitted to sell certain ones - other BBS distributors in the US get the other applications (much like how it works with SSR)

Personally, I LOVE how the above car looks - very elegant but hardcore at the same time (LM's are a no holds barred wheel!)..same wheels as used on Mine's car in Japan.

In the email BBS sent me, they said they were 19" rims. I have the original high res pics at home. I'll see if I can zoom in and read the tire sizes. However, those sure do look like 19's to my eye.
