JDM replica rims

[dvs240]

hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone knew any nice JDM replica deep dish mesh style rims? I want jdm rims, but can't afford em. I want something that looks like watanabe's. If anyone knows anything please shine some light on my situation. thanks

Look for Black Racing or some old BBS rims. Should be able to find a set for under $500.

get the off an inifinti g20

[rico05]

Good call. That is what I plan on doing myself and painting them gunmetal. They are the same rims that came on the JDM 180SX Type-X.

since when did wheels that looked like watanabes cost a lot of money?

That is all well and good, but IMHO 14s only look good on AE86s and NA6/8s (MX-5s).

Do you have some pics of your rims? I was thinking of getting these rims to put on my 90 240. You wouldn't happen to know how much for a set or if anyone is selling?:D thanks

[tex240]

sorry no pics. i wouldnt pay more then about 3 or 400 bucks for a set if i found any more.

[Slide180SX]

Thanks anyway Tex240

does anybody have a rim weight for the 180/infinity wheel. Ive been running them for a while but have no idea what they weigh. I know that with a 205/60 yok avs intermediate they come in at 40 lbs a peice but havve not weighed them by themselves

[tex240]

i just weighed mine they are 17lb with no tires and 37lb with 195/60/15 tires
