Default BBS CH Sizing

I see most people on here with BBS CH running the following setup

FR; 19x8.5 +35mm
RR; 19x10 +20mm

However have just run into this option

FR; 19x8.5 +20mm
RR; 19x10 +20mm

I have standard suspension.

Why is this not a popular choice? It is the one reccomended on BBS website, and looks more aggressive.

I found them for sale here
http://www.wheelbasealloys.com/19_In...y_Wheels__4707

Here we can see them front and rear in 19x8.5 +20mm

Hi

I have 19 x 8.5 ET35 and 19 x 10 ET20.

The ET35 is not really ET35... it's further out.
I think at ET20 they will stick too much outside.
The choice is yours.

I bought them for the trip, a bit of over enthusiasm as I ended up having to cancel, so I don't have them fitted to the car.
But to answer your question, there should be no modifications required to fit, they should just bolt straight on.

The CH's you have listed appear to have a rim protector fitted (Check as these are almost £70 each) also bare in mind Centre Caps and Valves
BBS Valve caps for the CH wheels are odd, the cap has an extended shoulder to cover the valve, £30 for 4
