This is for a Soma right? You do not want an Italian threaded bb! Even if it is going with an Italian Crankset.
The treading must match the frame (Italian, English, French, etc). The crank interface (iso taper, jis taper, octalink, isis, etc.) must match the crank.
If you are unsure what you need, I highly recommend going to a bike shop before you spend any time and money ordering.
EDIT: Oh wait, you're not the OP. Nevermind. But the above is still true, and the link I posted has Italian, but whatever.
