    if ur worried bout the chrome peeling or flaking make sure they have been double dipped if not u will get problems. if u decide 2 get them just make sure they spin up straight and dont have ne slight buckles in the rims if they do dont touch em or find a replacement that spins up straight otherwise u'll get vibrations, ask ur tyre fitter 2 do this they will b more then happy just 2 check

    bsa is a pretty good company, they have a good rep and so forth. ive had chrome bsa rims for almost two years and they havent ever caused me dramas, they look as good as the day i bought them. i think if you look after them right, like not using chemical cleaners on them and watching out for those gutters they'll last a while.

    My BSA wheels are still going OK. I've had them for about three years now and there is only a few marks on them (most probably rocks and stuff from the road) but look great when clean. They are a painted finish not chrome (wierd colour). I heard that you have to be careful with their chrome wheels, cos a mate of mine had a set of chrome wheels on his girlfriends car and they didn't last that long and look a bit crappy. They were one of their first wheels, before anyone had really heard of them. But i also heard that they are getting better with their chrome wheels.

    i reckon thats a good chop!
    is it actully lowered or did you lower for the wheels?

    BSA are pretty as already said just steer clear of RJR or CSA wheels.
    We got rep back, yaaay!
