I think the wheels look good, just in the rear I would have run a +35.
NYC roads are just nasty. Especially in Brooklyn. I also prefer the non-stretch look to protect my rim and for the performance. On my 9.5's I will be running 275's.

BBS LM = VERY Classy and VERY Clean 
In my opinion, one of the nicest mesh wheels you can buy, a favorite of mine. I really like the thick, polished lip on the LM and the spoke design. I think many of the mesh wheel designs are trying to replicate the LM design, including the wheels I have on right now in my sig.

thank you. finally someone agrees that together the car and wheels dont look their best.
get some work equips for your sc. get some 18x10+15ish and 18x11+0. that will tuck under stock fenders no problem and with the money you get for the LM's you can definitely afford it.

Thats like another inch and a half out in the back and a half inch more out in the front than what I have now.
Sorry to take this thread off topic. I am a HUGE fan of BBS LM's. They are deff one of my all time favorite wheel. I think they look good on the car. Get some massive spacers and lower it alittle more and youll be golden.

I like those wheels and in my opinion you should only listen to the opinions of those who are experienced.
The thing about forums is that anyone can post. It doesn't take any knowledge or skill or experience to post here.
A large number of the positive posts on this thread were by people who have nice cars, pics of their setups and experiences are shared with everyone for comment.
I find mostly the negative posts come from people who don't post many pictures or don't have the setup's that they are commenting on.
Anyway, back on topic... I like the rims. Get some new springs to bring the car down a bit and then assess the offset situation. You will need to roll the guards probably if you want to go low and push them out to the edge with spacers.
Spend the time with what you have before you get rid of something that is quite workable.
Matt.
