Does anybody know where I can get these wheels? The picture is from British Custom's home page. And, NO, I do not want to steal these ones, I want ones just like them.

I know they are made by Carrozzeria USA. The website says to contact british customs for more info. Did you try that?

I looked all over British Customs website and could not find them.
Thanks for letting me know who makes them. I have emailed BC and hopefully they will reply soon.

I just talked to Jason over at British Customs. Right now, he said, they are still trying to sort out a slight vibration issue with the 17" wheel. But they expect to deal with that and then, perhaps, move to America-size wheels early in the new year.

I, for one, would certainly be interested in an alternative to our not-so-great wire wheels.

those are some sharp looking wheels - if there was anything i could change about my bonnie without breaking the bank it would be the freakin spoked wheels. cant wait to see what others will bring out now that bonnies are well entrenched in the market place

Pretty cool. I'd like a tubeless spoked wheel myself. I know that conversions are available, just don't wanna pull the wheels and send 'em away. It would break my heart to see my bike sitting on a jack in the garage with no wheels for a month...

I agree, while I like spoked wheels, I really don't care for the one's my bike came with. Really, my only disapointment of the bike. I would be happy to find any aftermarket wheels, but I'm not sure what the heck I am looking for. Everyting I find online is Kawayamazuki or Hardley.

Is there a fitment guide to find out if any other makes are compatible?

I guess I could find some alum rims and have them respoked using my hubs, but I'm not sure how much $$$ that would cost.
