Default 7Series Wheels Adapters

I recently bought a set of BMW 7 series wheels for my LS400, but have only been able to find 15 mill adapters on ebay to run them. Was curious if anyone knew the specs and where the this guy got his?

given the fitment on that car i'd wager he's either running redrilled wides or more likely adapters.

Rims are deffff not redrilled, he is running adapters. Im just more so curious as to what size they are because that is the stance im aiming for.

I think Petis is running -1 and -6 in the rear with adapters on Megans.

I have the same setup on my UCF10 and I'm running -1 F and -7 R. Front pokes too much so I was going to go with a 19mm and have the rear poke a little bit more, so effectively +5 F and -15 in the rear

offsets are kind of useless without widths....

unlessyou and petis are both running stock 7series offsets (and they arent repros)

That is why i posted it in the title, that they were the 7 series wheels. I dont think they changed the widths/offsets unless they did on the newest generation

lol that was for S30ZG. if he's running OEM wheels then yeah those offset numbers will work fine for you.

19x9 +24 and 19x10 +24 are the stock offsets on the Style 95s.

I'm pretty sure me and Petis are running oem borbet made 95s.

Adapters just ordered, thanks S30ZG!

The lex is just my daily/rollout car, so im keeping it pretty mild. Will end up at +4 front, with a -5 rear. looking for just flush pretty much, with very minimal poke for running pretty minimal stretch and almost factory camber . Now i just need to locate some nice used coils hopefully ! Dont want to have to dish it out for New ones!

I have been building 240's for years, but this is my first big body i have ever played with. heres a shot or 2 of my s14 long ago when it was on the road.
