LENSO BSX 15" Alloys what do you think

[aderut]

Trying to find some alloys that would suit the SEAC, but most are rather to MAX POWER modern.
Anyone had any experience of LENSO BSX wheels?

Just looking at the pics - not overly bling. But why not get 16" as the rubber is easier to come by.

[aderut]

Thanks for the idea. Finding 225/50ZR15 ain't easy.
Would seem that the car had 225/50VR15 on it originally, I've got the invoices for the tyres back in 1989.

Have a look at 'Borbet Design A' too.

Ahh. These look alot like the ones on the yellow SEAC in Holland.

[grahamw48]

It's possible the Dutch one may have Azevs.

Personally I prefer the Borbets, as they seem to have a deeper dish...more like the SE splits.

The deep dish seems to offset the somewhat slab-sided appearance of the Wedge. IMHO.

Thanks for that, must say that they did look tasty on the yellow beast without being too bling.
Will hav e alook into 16" rather than 15" if we decide to replace wheels. The original OZ rims are pretty good but need some attention, and a new centre cover, so as ever the practicality of the deal is all a wee bit variable.

Thanks everyone, all of the above has been most helpful. May well plum for the BSX 16", in solid silver, with some new rubber. They seem to be the closed to the originals on my car.

These look similar to the original 16" fitted to my old SEAC

[aderut]

Thanks Steve. Very similar to those on mine, but look a little "chunkier" and have slightly fewer spokes, I think. If that's the right way to put it.
