BBS 'r' s alloys for e30 cab

hi,

i have seen a few pictures of E30's with the deep dish BBS r's on them. They look really good.

Does anyone know what sort of widths they come in at front and rear and what sizes will look good without rubbing?

Are there any retailers in the UK as i have searched with no success.

Cheers
