U can't whack on deep dish rims under these cars, unless u shorten the rear. u can only get wide rims but forget deep dish.

theres plenty of bbs lm reps on ebay, but do it right, save up the cash and get a set made to your requirements, measure up the car, and work out what size and offset you can go, then drop the cash

Theres a guy near me has an 06 SS-V. He has rims on that have about 2.5 - 3" dish on the rear, it looks absolutely fantastic. I'd probably do some more shopping around before
settling on those BBS, they look a bit 80's for me but each their own. Regardless what you go with, shop around is the important thing and ebay doesn't necessarily mean
bargain by any stretch.

yeah i like them .. but what i might do is just buy a set up HP mesh rims and powder coat them gold and keep the machined lip.

My rears are also dished the sizes up front are 245/35/20 and the rears 275/30/20. that is the same fitment as the HSV's running the gts wheels. I got my wheels through SSW.
