Scot and anyone interested,

Here are the weights and tire sizes recommended by BBS:
  • LM161 - 17x7.5" - et48 - 18.3lbs - 215/45-17
  • LM162 - 17x8.5" - et55 - 19.06lbs - 245/40-17
  • LM171 - 18x8.0" - et50 - 19.84lbs - 225/40-18
  • LM172 - 18x9.5" - et55 - 20.68lbs - 255/35-18


Keep in mind that these are BBS's "recommended" tire sizes and you might see others used. These sizes are based on keeping the outside diameter relatively close to the OE size. As an authorized BBS distributor, I will only recommend using the sizes they suggest.

Let me know if you have any questions or if I can help.

Thanks again,
Rob

Are you sure? 245/40/17 would be a better fit.
