Car: Kouki S13 Coupe, currently white possilby flat black soon.

Do these wheels look decent? I like old school JDM styles, but I am just undecided on this set. Thanks for any opnions!

They're cool, look like something that'd be more on AE86 but I'd like to see what they'd look like on a 240. Get pics if you decide on them!

What size are they? and what kind of center caps?

I think they look good, will be better to tell once they're on the car :D.

Here's a pretty close guesstimate of how they will look when the car's black...



At that price, Go for 'em.

I saw those same wheels for sale somewhere yesterday...they are 15x6.5 so not much better than stock. Dont recall the offset though.

very nice. you could pain them gold. but then they might look like you swipped them off an wrx. i say leave them the color they are. well unless there is a lot of dish, then you could crome the outer part of the rim.

Well, they have a light bronze finnish to them already, just in that light, they don't really show it. They are 15x.6.5, so with my 205s, they will be jsut right for the amount of power I plan on making (215rwhp on a SR, probabally done early summer 04)

Hmm. OZ rims, they wouldn't seem appropiate for a rwd car. Although i do like 5 spoke rims a lot. Those look identical to the ones of the Lancer (econobox rallisport edition)

i plan to get these for my car before spring: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...43956

either the sport bronze or the gunmetal w/ polished lip. probably the latter, since it will go with the CF hood i plan to get as well.
