Has anybody seen the new Fuchs? I believe they are in this same price range and the ad pics look very nice.

So I ended buying the wheels . they are in good condition with only some surface scratches no dings or rash of any kind . i also got the BBS center caps that were never used. now for some tires . front is an 8" and the rear is a 9.5" . what are the widest tires i can run on these without issues ? I would like to run a 245 front and 285 rear but i think they may be a little to big .

They look good!! The 285's may be a touch big but my guess is that they would fit, 245's should also fit. If it were me I'd stick with the 225/40 up front and 265/35 in back, going wider will change how the car handles, again that's me.

+1 on this advice. Great looking wheels and congrats on the purchase! I spent a year looking for a good set of BBS Sport Classic II's which have the same look as yours. Definitely a great looking wheel. I am looking forward to your pics with them installed
