I am wondering if someone can tell me what style BBS wheels are these? They were on my father's 1987 M6. They are 17". I have no idea what the offsets are but they had hubcentric rings on them. The tires on these are 235/45/17 Michelin PS All Season.

I would also like to know if someone know what offsets are for these wheels. I looked at the back but cant really figure out anything. I am posting detailed pics, hopefully someone can shed some light...

Definitely BBS RC. I can't quite make it out, but do you see ET __ anywhere on the back? That's the offset. Very nice wheels btw.

I had them on a Golf GTI in 1999:
They came in two finishes, mine were 8x18

My guess: they are 8x17 5x120 ET38

ya, they seem like they are RC (Thanks for the link) but they also had RC-Js and I dont know if they are the RC-Js...anyway, they dont have an ET in the back so I cant tell what the offset is...but ET38 sounds reasonable...thanks everyone for your responses...only if it was little bigger I could have used them on one of my cars...but 17s are too small for the big cars....that being said they look bigger than regular 17s...
