can you run the staggered 20"/21" RS setup on a standard gt3?
Don’t do that. They’re too wide with wrong offsets to fit under the fenders and if you could fit them (with flares?), the gearing would be horrible from the larger diameter 21” rears (RS has lower gearing for the purpose of offsetting the gearing change of the 21’s)

The overall diamaters of the rear tires used:
305/30ZR20 27.2"
325/25ZR21 27.4"
Gearing was not horrible when the radius was off by 0.1" .... not affected at all
Once again we dont recommend this set up but this is just to answer @aaa335 question whether it fits and works....
I don't know why they just don't offer a set of forged Al monoblocks in 20", exactly the same style as they already offer in 19". I would pay $9K for a set all day long, but 17K is nuts. That's literally another car.
BBS offers nothing in the middle. For 20" they have $3.5K CH-R's, and $17K forged magnesium.....how about Aluminum forged RE monoblocks in the same classic motorsport style??? I would buy a set now if they would make them.....

There is no denying that a 20" RE-MTSP would sell like hotcakes escpecially at the right price. I wonder just how many people would purchase....its possible to make it happen but we would need a solid commitment from a good number of you guys. Perhaps we could inquire to see what it would take to make this a reality.....
Comparing the the 19" forged aluminum to the 20" are forged magnesium isnt apples to apples....there is going to be unfortunately the huge price variance we are seeing.
They do offer the BBS FI-R which are forged aluminum for around 9k
They also offer the BBS Motorsport Wheels for those wanting to run 19" and have steel discs.
3pc E88 in 19"
3pc E07 in 19"
3pc GT3 cup in 19"
3pc E89 in 20" but only for steel discs. (1 set of black centers w polished lips will be available in about 2 weeks)

The reality is that there really isn't an ideal 19" tire size for Cup2 or TrofeoR for the GT3, sure 325-30-19 works, but it's not ideal, and we really need to be running a 35 aspect rear tire on 19", therefore, I've settled on 20" to run these tires, but want a set of 20" RE-MTSP wheels.
Officially count me in for a set - 20" RE-MTSP - aluminum
Why don't you inquire with BBS, I have no doubt there would be a big commitment from Rennlisters for these badass wheels in 20".

As they say...the wheels are in motion. Looking into this becoming a reality for GT3/911R!
Germans are here for PRI. I contacted head of Motorsport in USA and he is w him now.
They are going to see what the pricing works out to be. They believe I may be onto something here if the weight penalty is not too bad.
Fingers crossed!
Sweet !! I'll be at PRI tomorrow. I'll be stopping by their booth. I'll ask about these wheels to help further the cause.
The weight should be fine, it should be right around where stock 20" wheels weigh. Given that they sell 20" flow form CH-R wheels that are 4-6lbs heavier per wheel than stock, the forged weights should be fine.
