The only real way to know (other than a trial fit of the actual wheel) is by using hispecs own template using the figures from the diagram for your set up (285 Billet 4 i'm guessing?) and take it along to a wheel supplier and give it a go.

This is the 285 Billet 4 Dimensions Diagram:

Hope that helps.

I wouldn't think that they would fit with lenso bsx due to dish style of that rim, I tried K-Tec big brake conversion 285mm and they wouldn't fit with Lenso RS-5 alloys :( however the 4-pots are smaller than the normal calipers, so might have to just be a trial fit of the alloys
