Thanks,
He posted a pic...
...I agree the model of the wheel is not the usual BBS designation we are used to seeing.
I'm not positive, but I think Nuzzo is in NY.

Are these wheels forged? I can't find any info on them.

Through my very limited research (about 30seconds) they seem to be only available in Europe and they are discontinued.

Do you happen to know what the offset is? Sorry for all the questions, just wondering if spacers would be needed or not.
Thanks, Joe

Did some quick research and it appears the wheels are cast, the offset is 35, and they weigh about 17-18lbs. Not sure if this info is correct as i had to decipher foreign languages lol.
Tony, very interested in these wheels...

Will a 35 offset work fine on an R56? Less offset means wheel sticks OUT more?

No they are not chrome plated they are Silver in color. The MFG states that they should not be chromed.

I'm surprised these are still here.
FWIW, Tony Nuzzo is a top notch guy and treated me so very well when I bought a set of tires from him earlier this fall.
