Is the USP and regular sport package suspension the same?

Default They'll clear the OEM setup, but I don't see the clearance needed for a BBK.
MikTip on this forum runs Privat wheels on his car. They look good. Not sure about weight or how strong they are.

Default 19" wheels do not guarantee BBK clearance. It's the design of the spokes/lip that matters.
My 18" wheels will easily handle a 355mm BBK, but there are plenty of 19" wheels that don't even clear a smaller 332mm BBK.
