Wheel Directory: Bavaria BC-5 Concave 20x8.5 +??
Hi Everyone! As the builder of Project Chimera for this past SEMA 2012 show I thought I would share how our build turned out and the awesome wheels that Nutek / Bavaria Wheels fitted for our car. We are sporting 20x8.5 all around - dropped on Eibach Springs with OEM shocks. The wheels are wrapped in Toyo Proxies.

We are all open to our thoughts... ^_^ Will just add that the fitment is very good and with the right tire it makes for a smooth ride.

If you can fit 20x8.5 all round, does that mean i’d be able to fit 18x9.5 +23 all around on a stock body?

I'm sure some have done it. I'm on 18x9.5 +35 stock body with springs. So I'm sure with coilovers you should gain enough clearance to possibly fit the +23 offset wheels. Though I'd check the wheel fitment guide that should be stickied to see others with similar wheel specs to get a good idea.
