Default BBS Style 5


I got some Style 5 BBS 16" rims I want to put on my 96. They are 8" wide wheels. I like the staggered look. What tire combo should I go with. I want wide tires in the rear. I read that the widest you can go 8" wheels is 255 safely.

^^^ A 255/50-16 ALL AROUND would be a good street set up for 16 x 8s.

About the only street tire left in that size is the BFG Sport Comp 2, which is a decent street tire, but FAR FAR from an autocross tire OR a drag radial.

^^^That does look 'classy', and mean as well with those tires' big shoulder tread blocks, on those wheels.
(The 285s add just that little bit more sidewall to stave off the 'rubber band look' too many others have.)

Thanks you sir! I'm very happy with the end result.






Showing how much room there is to work with the previous setup.




Same in front.




Now sits out a bit more, looks more aggressive.




The same with rear.

So far I love the more aggressive stance and no worries about fitment at all. No fended rolling or bfh to fit. I am using hubcentric rings.

Still need to let the springs settled and an alignment. On strano springs and konis on the lowest setting up front. Waiting for those umi coilovers
Love those. They really show off your CTS-V brakes nicely. Like a trophy case.

5x120mm Borbet Type-T 17x9.5 40mm offset with 275 NT555's on all four corners. These wheels were discontinued quite some time ago, rarely see them on an fbody.

What lug nuts are you guys using with the Miro 111? I see the rims say to use ball seating lug nuts and am having a hard time finding any black ones
