Hate to tel ya Trouty, but those wheels are a dime a dozen here in NZ. Every boy racer and his best mate has them.

Mike, that may be so but in Aus, 800Ms with BBS RX are not so common.

Van, that rings a bell. I hope he has some pics. TTIWWP

That is a thing of beauty.

But it's a different set of wheels to the pic I posted. Those look like a 17" version of the optional 18s on the BA XR range. The plot thickens.

17" BA XR8 replicas are available in E series and AU/BA
18" BA XR8 replicas are available in AU/BA only.

I WILL have pictures of my baby and its new wheels here tonight (Monday). If the damn photo shop doesn't have the prints ready after work I won't leave 'til they are done! I took the films in on Friday at 9:30am expecting same day processing... damn it.

The pic you posted Jack was of BA XR6 wheels.
The 2nd pic was the XR8 wheels.

Just thought a few people might like to know that they are making the 18" rims in a E-series offset now Won't be long before they start circulating.
