Bbs replicas rs

I want to keep the factory look on my 1991 Convertible.
I want to order some 17" BBS RS Replica Wheels for 1991 Convertible. I need help with picking the correct size 17x7, 17x8, etc.. and offsets.
I'm kind of looking for that Reverse (Big Lip - dollar bill size) look for the rear. The front can be standard offset.
Thanks in advance for any help I receive on this.

I bought replicas off of ebay and am very happy with them.

But i went with 18x8 up front and 18x9 in the rear with a 3" lip. Kinda wishin i wouldve gone with 17's but oh well.

So what do these numbers mean on the original 15" BBS wheels and how can I apply these numbers to find the correct reverse offset wheel?

Do you plan to roll or pull your rear fenders? Not a ton of room for lip if you don't.

Stock body fitment

17x8 +25mm offset for front w/ 235 tire(might need to roll fender) or stick with 225

17x9 +35mm offset for rear w/ 275 rear tire should fit under stock body.

These are the off sets I went with. As far as your wide body your talking about..who knows. You need to get them on and measure to be exact

Do you have pics of the fitment on your car?
