Wheel question

Post by Vulpes »

Im looking for a set of the old style Hotwire mags we used to run on our cars in the 80's. Seeing as how the staz has 15's on it it shouldnt be prob with the size provided I can find a set somewhere. Any ideas ?

i highly highly doubt u will find a set, i've never seen bigger than 14's in 4 stud..

also personally i dont think they'd suit..

but the minilite style watanabe RS-8's that 4G6beat has for sale would be awesome on it...

Try an R31 skyline forum(HERE) or old school Toyota one (HERE). Same stud pattern and similar offsets.

2 votes for the Watanabe's - on a white car they would look way cool :drool:

I second the watanabes he he but i'm biased. LOL

SSR Longchamps would look cool for that old school look.

Konig rewinds are a good alternative to watanabes aswell if you're looking to purchase new, plenty available in staggered offsets and staz/sprinter/r31 offset.

There still maybe hyperfangs kicking around out there somewhere aswell were mega popular a few years back.

They're like mini lights....
I would love a pair of 18" ones with staggered offset :drool:

(although i'm not entirely sure you can get them)
