My BBS LM that size rear has a 55mm offset acording to the tire rack. I think it varies from wheel to wheel, I don't know, I shouldn't have posted.

OEM is gonna be the only way to get decent offsets cheap. How about 4 AP2 Rears?

the TRmotorsports F3's are exact OEM AP2 size and offset. plus they are hubcentric, no need for centering rings. i bought them about 5 months ago from jim @ TR for much less than the advertised price. you might want to call Jim and check the price. PM me if you want to know what i paid.

Look for the Version 2 AP2 wheels (ie 2006 and 2007 wheels). It seems that these do not command as high of a price
