Default Bbs Rk - Gs4

I've been trying to keep my wheel choice on the D.L. since I haven't seen it on any GS' in the forum. Unfortunatley, I don't know enough about wheels to make the best choice, so I need some help.

I've been eyeing BBS RK 18" for my GS4, but tirerack only sells them in 7.5" width. Is there an 18x8 or 18x8.5 available for the GS? BBS also sells these in a "ball polished" finish, which I haven't seen anywhere. Does anyone know if this setup will work and where I can get'em?

They have 18x8.5, but only in 5:112 and 5:120.

The polish is kind of a dark polish, looks much better than the silver IMO.

What does 5:112 and 5:120 represent? Would this be a good fitment on the GS?

That is the bolt pattern. Your lexus is a 5:114.3.

Default What about the other BBS R's?

The other BBS R series rims all look very similar to the RK and are available in 5 x114.3, otherwise take a look at the some HRE's not exactly the same spoke design but great looking wheels, or some of the O.Z. Italy wheels have a BBS RK look to them as well.
