    They are BSA brand AU334 model wheels. The Australian website is Welcome to BSA AU G2 Wheels

    They do have a pretty extensive range, but I'm not sure if they have any US outlets.

    have they affected fuel economy? Things like wheel weight and offset, tire width can have a major effect

    Nice. Did the pinstripe cost you extra?

    Yep. My original order only didn't have dealer extras but after 6 weeks of hearing nothing, I was willing to take a few "enhancements" from another dealer.

    I have bought 3 cars from them, usually because they could get the car I wanted. Can't say I ever "enjoy" buying a car, although I sure do enjoy OWNING this one. Anish Rajput e-mailed me 2 weeks after I had told him I put a deposit with another dealer to check ans see if I had a car yet (I had never heard a word from the other dealer) and Anish got my car in 2 weeks. Someone had changed their mind so I got lucky, but he was keeping on top of things and knew all about the car when I picked it up so I didn't have to correct him on anything. I appreciated his help and service.

    Thanks for the info. Did you sell your 17" factory rims? If not, do you want to sell them?

    Sorry, but all the Australian cars only come with 15" wheels standard. That's why I changed them.

    Nice wheels! I think I like those better than the OEM wheels on mine.

    It looks great! Did you get a chance to test the MPG before and after and see if it affected it at all? It seems there are alot of confusing blogs on this topic and I would like to know from someone who actually switched to 17" rims. :)
