Default bbs jdm wheels

after 3 years of owning this car, i just learned (from this board - of course!) that our car in the jdm style comes with optional bbs wheels.
any info on bbs wheels for our car?
which ones are available that fit and what sizes/ prices, etc.?
thanks!

Thank you

No, Tirerack does not carry the JDM BBS wheels. These are forged wheels in 16x6.5 and 16x7.5 in the exact same offset as the OEM USDM wheels but they weigh about 4 lbs lighter. If Tirerack can get JDM S2000 I'll buy them.

no, The RGR are a different style. The JDM BBS wheels look like 94 era RX-7 wheels to me.

Bump for this thread. I also would like to have the JDM 6 spoke BBS if someone could find a supplier.
