So, I read all I could find on BSA 215 wheels. The weights seem reasonable and I like the look.
I'm posting this to share what I see as a really good deal... no affiliation at all AND the wheels are not here yet.
However, so far things look really good. The supplier has been really responsive. I sent payment this morning and he gave me tracking #s 30 minutes later. Price was $589 +shipping (total shipped to me in Cal. was $659) Here is a link to a current eBay auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=260058221361
The seem like a decent track wheel as they are not overly heavy.
I will follow up with comments after I receive them... and post pics with them on my car after all of the projects I'm doing this winter, including suspension![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Ahhh... the Superbowl Sunday run ! P-Cars, light traffic, good roads, nice scenery, car-folks and lunch to boot. What more do we want ?
At the rate time seems to be moving this year, the run will be upon us sooner than we think. Yippee !!!!!!!

I had these on my boxster and loved the look, in fact my 993 came witt MY02 5 spokes and im going to be selling them for another pair of the BSA 215a(s). BSA makes a 18x11 with and et52 that has that deep dish that looks soooooo good.

Those 5 spokes are light. Like them a lot.

There are 2 sets of teh BSA Eagle Rocks... Great wheels and are pretty light.
The BSA factory guys took a tour of BBS and they took lots of notes and have copied their casting technology.
One with the 1 inch lip on all four or the set that has the nice 3.5" deep dish in the rear.
Either set is awesome. But who doesn't like a deep dished wheel?

As just predicted; I would be interested in buying your MY 02 - 5 spokes depending on price, condition, etc.
If there is a que forming can I be first in line?
thanks!!!

Steve, I'm not sure that the wider will fit a NB car, will it?
I went with the 50mm offset in front and 60mm in rear. I have a NB car.

MarkD- I am definitely interested in the MY 02's if Stace passes. I do like the look of the BSA's as well and I am looking forward to seeing them mounted on your car. Keep me posted. Thanks- Jon

Thanks.
Also, here is the link to BSA's web site: http://www.bsa.com.my/web/newfproduct_full.htm
The wheel pictured above is the BSA 215a (18")
Send him an email and ask what he has available. That is what I did. The guy is very responsive and pleasant to deal with so far.
Good luck!
