LMs make almost any car look good. Still needs a more aggressive offset in the rear though to make it pop.

not the right wheels for that car, it would be better if the rear offset wasnt so tucked. nice car and color though.

Damn small world, I just picked up an M3 and found this thread. As for the specs:

BBS LM's
20x9.5
20x10.5
with stock tires 255x40 and 285x35

The offsets are et20 front and rear and not my choice but the only offsets made for the GT-R from BBS. Those initial pics didnt have spacers but I now have 15mm up front and 20mm in the rear and the car sits flush. I added the BBS red lugs too. I love the car but I also love the M3- they both have their advantages and faults.

Oh yeah the GT-R has the HKS GT570 kit on it- much faster than stock.

Yes, see my most recent post where I noted that I added 15mm and 20mm spacers. BBS really didnt make these wheels aggressive enough. I need some good pics though.

Here are a few amateur shots:

Turbo>NA · 08-11-2009, 11:30 PM

Spacers helped a lot!

You have any far shots of the rear with the new spacers?

Clean car Vik, you should get red racing seat to match your brakes

Try this... the car sits a little lower, might have been the level of ground it was on:

Wow that makes a world difference.
Looks great man.

The GTR is an awesome car. I love yours with the BBS. I had the opportunity to drive one for a day and I had a blast. The M3 is quick but the GTR is in a different league. I think the M3 is more comfortable and livable day-to-day but I would take a GTR over the M3 in a second.
