BBS wheels for allroads exist.....
There are several BBS wheels (RK, RX, CH, LM and others) which are listed on the BBS site as fitting the allroad. In my conversation with BBS, they create the allroad fitment with the use of .... ta da....spacers. BBS machines their 12mm spacers from billet stock. The spacers are a hubcentric fitment to the wheels in place of the centering rings.
Spacer kit (one 12mm spacer and 5 longer bolts) is p/n 09.50.310 and retails for $79 each. Not cheap at $316 for a set of 4 spacers, but made by BBS for BBS wheels.
I've got a set of used 18x8 BBS RX wheels on the way (23 lbs each) that I was just going to file away for potential future track tires, but may get a set of these spacers and run them on the street to try.
Anyway, the options for our allroads just got broader.

BBS are good
Wheels = 18x8.5 BBS RK-II two piece wheels. ET 32. 23 lbs.
Spacers = H&R 15mm hub and wheel centric spacers
Tires = 255/45-18 Goodyear F1 GS-D3
Final effective offset seen in pics is 32mm - 15mm = 17mm.

I strive to be like you....
18X8 BBS RX, 12mm BBS spacers, 245/45-18 GS-D3. Tires are collecting dust waiting for me to get wheels.
BTW- BBS spacers are $50 each from TireRack
