Has anyone here run a bbk with style 5's? If so were there clearance issues with wheel diameter or back spacing?

I would think that the ET20 of Style 5 is spacing the wheel out further and adding clearance for BBK just like a spacer on ET41 stock wheels. This comment is for E39 spec Style 5 on E36.
You need to get the brake caliper position before an accurate answer can be provided. Depending on the BBK you're going to use the caliper position will change based on rotor size and caliper design. I know Alex (sales@brewedmotorsports.com) has always helped me out with brake kits that fit under a particular wheel, i'm sure he would have more than a couple good options for the style 5's on an E36.
I’d be interested in the wheel choice as well. My ST40 F+R will fit under my summer Apex ARC8 17x9 ET42 with 12 mm spacers up front and no rear spacer, but require a 25mm front and 15 mm rear spacer when used with my winter 17x17.5 Contours that are ET41. The difference is due to the inside contour of the wheel rims.
Thanks tunermt, I'll reach out to him and see what he sugguests and I'll post what ever info I find out so maybe it will help others

When I had my BBK I needed 20mm spacers up front on my BBS RS wheel.
Problem with the RS vs style 5's is the smaller center, which makes the circumference of the bolts closer to the center i.e. closer to the caliper. Otherwise 14mm would have cleared my wheels.
