Hello.... BK Racing 238's. Only made for scoobies in Gold.

I like them, but they are a nightmare to keep pristine.... rims are wider than the tyres!!!

Thumbs up

Nice car mate!

Not a great fan on gold wheels myself but I do like BK238s.
I was thinking of getting some myself. What size are they? You say they are wider than the tyres, is that just the spokes cos of the design or the rims themsleves? What tyre size are you running? I take it you don't get any rubbing on the arches?

Cheers

Mojo

Mojo, I don't think the BK racing 238's Base Gold version come in any other size than 17". The silver version(good-lookin to) comes in other sizes.

falcon 215/35/18 ... i can get you a set for £440.
thats what i run.

btw...... i believe my wheels are bk238's and they are 18" and in gold, and only for the scoob, so i reckon they must make them
... but maybe not in sweden though

OZ's will be lighter, but I heard elsewhere that super legs bend fairly easily.

yeah the Oz wheels are lighter, but not much, and i was reliably informed that the BK Wheels were a lot stronger...

hello....

the rims are designed so they hold in the tyres..... it looks lovely but as a result anything u drive over / go near scratches them.

I tend to drive a lot of country roads, and as a result i'm a dab hand at touching them up now!!!

I run the Falcon 215/35/18 tyres.... see my thread in the wheels and tyres forum if you want some. I can get you good deals on the wheels too if anyone likes them that much!

As for the car.... well I am going to sell her .... my excessive mileage means that for one I cant afford the running costs, and secondly if I keep her another year she will have done 50000 miles and wont be worth anything. So if anyone fancies her for themselves.... mail me Only doen 17k at the moment... loads of toys , and 275 bhp too!
