Default Jim or NE1 knowledgable - can you answer questions on BBS RK wheels?

Hi guys/gals.

I'm curious to see if anyone knows if BBS makes their RK series wheel in a fitment appropriate to our S2K's. Ive seen this wheel in 18" size on the Lexus IS300 and really loved the wheel. Last night, I got a mailing from Moss Motorsports and they're offering the wheel in 17X7 for the Miata. The bolt pattern looks like it matches and the wheel isn't too heavy.

Does anyone know if this high quality and beautiful wheel can be purchased for the S?

Thanks in advance,

Yes, the BBS RK's are really nice wheels. They are pretty light for the price! I was looking into these wheels (18x7.5) awhile back for my TL. They also come in this ball polish finish which add a shiny finish and strengthens the wheel.
But, to my disappointment, they only come as high as +44 offset!
So, I think BBS hasn't made any offsets yet for this wheel that will fit our cars!
You may get away with 17x7 +44 for the front, but I don't know what you can do for the rear?
Jim, can you confirm?

They don't make a rear wheel with the correct offset and width for the car.
