BSM on 20inch BBS FI-R

Hey guys
Picked these up off my buddy Powerbeast to have some fun with and get some pictures

Here's a quick pic of my car on full 20" polished BBS FI-r

I had no plans from straying the 19/20 split
But well, would ya just look at it

- Car is lowered to track setting

Looks sharp but that is LOW!
Seems even lower than regular track height.
Could not live with it on that setting since I drive it basically every day to work.
Great pics though...love the wheels.

I think the 20 in front with a low profile tire makes it look lower,
looks great for photos!

Wow, looks great with the BBS. Do you feel any difference with the handling because of the lighter wheels?

Looks good - they look larger than 20s due to the wheel design and ride height of car.

Looks very nice.

I am moving to a 20 on the front, as I am sick and tired of the pebbles trashing the front wheel and caliper.

Ryan at IND has set me up with the BMW 20" front wheel painted Acid Orange to keep a stock look but have the additional clearance. I think, and we will see, that the combination of a greater clearance and a less sticky Michelin 4S tire should reduce or hopefully even eliminate the scaring, gouging, grinding and other assorted noises and damage I currently experience. I barely drive the GTS currently because of this issue.

Hopefully Ryan has solved this for me.

That BBS wheel, IMHO, looks great with your Black GTS!

You will be very happy with that setup, the 20s all around and normal street tires make gts feel much more dailyable then the cup2, not that i dont like the cup 2 or stock setup, this again was just to give a run and see how it did,

no complaints at all

What size are your front tires? My p-zeroes wouldn't clear the rear fender.
