It should. My 06 gixxer is fitted with a 120 front and 190 rear tire. The rims are 17's just like the Busa. As far as axle size, im not sure but I don't see why not.

THE GSXR 1000 RIMS DOES FIT ON TO busa . Weights lighter than our stock rims. Fitment are A Ok . even their front fork fits onto busa as well , which can hook it up with radial calipers .

If you want the current gix wheels. You need to convert the front end also. You need to make custon axel spacers for the rear wheel.

I know that the 01-04 gsxr1000 rims will work on a busa but its not a direct bolt on. I just put 02 silver gsxr rims on my busa 2 weeks ago. There is a guy over on Suzukihayabusa.org that sells the spacer kit to make it work (two front spacers and 1 rear) and for the rear to work you have to machine .125 off the brake caliper hanger. PM me if you have any questions.

You may be able to change the bearings to get em to work. I been looking into swaping rims on my 97 ZX9 all day. Still hunting for info.

I have TL1000 rims on my busa.

Interchangeable match. Wanted a stock silver for my '00. Expensive to buy all new axle spacers & bearings, but they look awesome on the bike.

Before rims...
