I am looking to change the wheels on a 2011 America. I want to keep the same size just want to get laced wheels. Here is where I'm jammed up... I can't seem to find any places that sell laced rims for triumph's. British customs has a wide wheel option as a option to chrome stock cast wheels only. There is also pure-triumph but again no laced wheel options. Any suggestions?

Older BA wheels from Engeland Moto or Pinwall.

Did you buy a bike? Last I heard you were looking, didn't know you got one yet. If so congrats, I must have missed the post.

Stock BA wheels from 06 on back were laced. If you want a 15" front you would need a new loop or a 2nd loop from a rear wheel. You can get loops after market if you want to change the size but the stock hubs from the older BA will work. If you are re-lacing you could powder coat the hubs to suit you.
