What do these weigh? Must be 30lbs or so? I believe the 19x8.5 is around 25

So 20x10.5 et25 is the flushness equivalent of stock wheels + 23mm spacers? How does that not rub? Do you need to run a load of camber and/or some silly stretched tires?

Edit... Yikes. WTF?

Yes, they weigh a boat load, I believe you're correct ~ 30 lbs.

And the latter, silly stretch.

The setup look absolutely killer IMO. But, to your point, it takes away some of the ability of the car due to how aggressive it is.

I'm convinced the best setup on our cars, if you're looking to run 20's, is 20x10 et 30 with a proper tire. So, I'll be looking to sell these BBS's and look for that. It's a shame they don't fit better b/c IMO it looks absolutely stellar (minus this much stretch).

Yeah that's basically like running 12mm spacers all around which is nice and aggressive.
Still thinking of selling?
