Hello guys,

I'm in love with the BBS CH wheel design but I cannot afford to get a full set of those for my TSX. I was wondering if anyone had seen anything EXACTLY like the CH's by any other vendor. I know there's a lot of variants of that spoke design but nothing I've found has come close to the BBS design. Let me know if you guys know of anything. BBS CH picture is below:

Have you checked with Rota? Rota is known to make knockoffs of many popular design wheels.

Close but not the same.

I have the ASA AR1 17X7 which is licensed by BBS. It has the BBS logo inside the rim. Cost is $279 chrome or $179 polished/black (17X7). About $500 (chrome) to $900 (polished/black) cheaper for a set of 4 compared to BBS CH.

BBS CH is one of my favorite rims, I don't think the ASA AR1's are very similar since they have a large lip.

check out the Rota Formula Mesh, its a very close copy of the CH, but the availability is pretty poor. The spokes go nearly all the way to the rim, but it has a small lip.

AWESOME, those are almost identical!!

Exactly what I was looking for...

If you own these rims, do you have any pics with them mounted?

Thanks again,
Ish

me? nope, i just looked into them for a while. they only come in 18x8, but getting a set of 5x114.3 is very difficult

Ishakir

Won't the 18x8.0, 5x114.3 fit on our TSXs?

Ishakir

^^ +48 offset

xizor

yes it will fit, but you need to find a set, when I looked a while back none were in the US

I'm pretty sure subydude.com has a set of Formula Mesh 5x114.3 18x8's because it's been quite a while now.

Here's what was on the Formula Mesh ordering page.

Available Options.

These look like them but with a nice lip...

I am also a fan of the BBS CH and CH-R. I ran a set of the CH's on my '93 Camaro Z28. I loved the look and the ride was infinitely better than with the 2001 era C5 Corvette wheel I rode on prior to them. Currently, I own 2 Acura CL Type S (an '01 and an '03 6spd) and I run the Enkei Raijin in a 19" diameter on both cars. I don't feel like I gave up anything making this move. I bought both sets for roughly what I would have paid for the CH-R's and I couldn't be happier with the outcome...
