BBS Le Mans

I have just got my new BBS wheels. Its BBS Le Mans 11x18" with KumhoV70A 285/30-18 for rear and 9x18 with 265/35-18 for front. To get clearence at the front I need to have camber plates and increase the camber angle.

Do you have the offset info on those wheels? I have been looking at getting a set of LMs in either 8.5 or 9" front and 10" rears, and running 265sand 285s. What alignment camber are you thinking you need in front to fit the 9s (265s)?

Ah... I love BBS wheels! Very classic Porsche application!

"Do you have the offset info on those wheels? I have been looking at getting a set of LMs in either 8.5 or 9" front and 10" rears, and running 265sand 285s. What alignment camber are you thinking you need in front to fit the 9s (265s)?"

Most likely he's got TurboS offsets of 65/60mm (coilvovers required for front tyres wider than 245mm). You can get a 18x11/12" wide combo under stock fenders with those offsets. Alan Coleman's running 18x12" with 315/30-18 all around. Paul bloomberg even had a 18x13" rear with 335/30-18 I think...
