gaz the geezer 0 Posted January 24, 2006 mmmmmm....they would look ok as long as the brake assemblies are up together but as a preference i like wheels that kinda hide the discs a bit IMO. but they are nice all the same. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bendy 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Phil size wish i was thinking 9 x 17, i've got 9 x 16's on at the mo but my car runs way toooooo low on them, i only have about 2 or 3 fingers between the road and the sump so goin bigger zippyvr6 yeah 17's see above for the main reasons!!! lol gixxeruk shushhhhhh dont say anything about the black 1's with the polished lip as those were the 1's i wanted, was just seeing what peeps thought of the general style!!!! lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigTartanJudge 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Yeah, really liking these wheels at the moment, they are not real split-rims tho' are they just split-rim effect ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 24, 2006 :-) mums the word Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bendy 0 Posted January 24, 2006 as far as i know bigtartanjudge they are just a split rim effect, well im guessing from the price that they are, for a 9 x 17 there £129.50 not a bad price for a nice wheel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bendy 0 Posted January 24, 2006 btw gixxeruk love the bike, what is it the 600, 750, or the 1000???? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Good price, wonder how much they weigh in comparison to BBS's... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bendy 0 Posted January 24, 2006 triggermyson good point, never thought of that 1!!! dont suppose anyone out there has 1 that they can weigh??????? anyone!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 24, 2006 bluevr6rado, 750 mate :-) roll on summer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Really nice wheels ASA are licensed by BBS who apparently advise them on production etc. I like the black with the diamond cut rim. Can't fault the price, I just got some RX2s but had been thinking about these. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bendy 0 Posted January 24, 2006 gixxeruk dam right, bring on the sun. well for a week i guess :lol: no crappy salt either!! osv being a bit of a wheel whore!! as they are licensed by bbs do you reckon these would be quite lightweight then? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pkripper 0 Posted January 24, 2006 Look like the TSW Kyalami that I put on the smart, they were £600 with tyres in 17 fitment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted January 24, 2006 I don't have specific details but as BBS advise on production they should be comparable to similar sized quality rims. True lightweights are few and far between. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bendy 0 Posted January 24, 2006 pkripper how wide where the tsw that you had tho? osv very true about the lightweightness thing, few an far between and uber expensive me would thinks as well!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted January 24, 2006 ASA AR1 17x7 - 20.3lb BBS RX 17x7.5 - 20.9lb Impressive. The BBS is wider though, think the 17 AR1 only comes in in a 7. BBS RXII is 21.2lb http://www.wheelweights.net :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted January 24, 2006 I was thinking you'd have troulbe with 9s then I remembered which car you owned (Denton fettled arches) :lcop: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBS RXII is 21.2lb http://www.wheelweights.net :) Good site that isn't it?! Not sure about their weight quote though as I've seen figures of 19, 21 and 23lbs from different sources! I'll weigh one of mine I think..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
