my understanding is BBS Japan is the only place to get them. They offer fitment for the Japanese 5x114.3 bolt pattern. Very expensive and a long wait...

With our bolt pattern and that size you're looking at 20 x 8.5 with a +36 offset in front and in the rear with a 20 x 10 you'll be looking at a +38. This set-up works with the first and 2nd gen GS' but I think some fenderwork might have to be done. I don't know much about the third gen to really say if this set-up would work.

thanks for the feedback. I'm not adverse to rolling the lip of the fender if that's necessary. Wonder if these wheels are something BBS America carry or if it's custom order. Because that could take a long time.
