I'm starting to lean that direction. If I could find a reasonably priced 17x9.5, I'd get it at this point, regardless of offset, and just run spacers.

I even wrote BBS, and wouldn't you know it... the e-mail came back as unknown user ID, lol.

so andy did some looking around while i was bored. and i have found the solution to you problem. you are going to need a 18mm spacer. but the price is good and they would look good with the wheels you already have.

what about running a hub adaptor to take your 5x120 and convert it to the VERY common 5x114.3?

Then you could run just about anything since there's tons of 17x9's for that bolt pattern that're nice and cheap..... just my canadian $0.02 :lol:
