I had this passed down to me when I moved house, so I'm trying to figure out what kind of car it might have belonged to.

Its BBS, with BAR written on the dish part of the rim. Along with RE883 and 69 on the outside edge. I have a glass top with it too so its like a coffee table. It also weighs virtually nothing so I'm fairly sure its genuine magnesium.

Looks exactly like this - https://picasaweb.google.com/105109715262234814963...

Any ideas?
Thanks
Sam

Well BAR were British American racing, an old f1 team. Which became Honda, then Braun racing and now Mercedes (pretty much anyway)
