So, I've spent the past few days sifting through net-garbage and bullsh*t-a**, so-called "JDM superstores" looking for some Lover Soul or Garcia Tune's in a 17x9 or 17x8. Have any of you street-knights seen or heard of such a creature?

Maybe I'm not JDM TyTE enough, but what is so special about them... They're 4 lug 5 spoke wheels...

Considering they're, apparently, pretty rare and they're JDM.... I'll lay money they got a pretty hefty price tag by comparison to similar wheels with the same style

They're pretty common in the Honda world. It's one of those wheels that everyone loves because it's so JDM, not because it looks good.

Are you looking for just the rim or the whole wheel? :laugh:

Yeah, just a center-cap would be cool as well, Maybe i could make a sweet shift-knob out of it.. :chuckle:

Yeah, these are looking like a honda only sort of deal. All of the one's I've found are too small, or have a wack-a** offset... oh well.

I swear, it always trips when out when guys jump from Honda to Nissan and they come in asking about all these Honda-favorite wheels to put on their 240, like Racing Harts, Slipstreams, Regamasters or whatever... I'm all like :facepalm:

those are definitely cool wheels.... for like a honda hatchy or something to that nature... not branding them gay or "honda" wheels but if they came super low offset with deep dishes and the writing on the face that would be pimp tyte jdm cool... but i just cant see them looking good on a 240sx

I swear, it always trips me out when motherf***ers jump to conclusions about what car a dude drove before he got on this forum, and they barge into someone's thread with no helpful input, and only a bunch of s*** to talk. I didn't come from a Honda forum. And if I knew that these wheels were a predominately honda-esque application/offset, I wouldn't have asked the question.

How can I add any helpful input to this thread, when there is none to add? What you're asking (Lovers Tune or Garcia Soul wheels in RWD Nissan sizes) for doesn't exist. If you didn't just google the name of these wheels and notice that only Honda forums are talking about them, thats not my fault. And if you didn't know that what wheels that look good on Hondas will most likely not look good on 240's, that is also not my fault. Again... faceplam. :facepalm:

If there is a topic that doesn't interest you, it's not like we're in a room where you have to hear what i'm saying. You have nothing to add? Shut up then. :slap:

Nah. I'm on NICO everyday while at work. I think I'm just gonna keep on commenting exactly how I feel like commenting whenever and where ever I feel the urge... stupid question or not. It's an online forum, homeboy. Get used to it.

At least I'm not spewing wildly misleading info in your thread. I could have said the wheels would look good on your car and then laughed at your fail later after you shelled out the cash to hunt them down.

Go ahead and respond. Lets see if we can get this thread locked.

Oh and here some useful info for you: the brand of the wheels are Sprint Hart or Classic Spirits. So in case you ever get a Honda, that might make it easier to hunt them down.

I like both off these, but good luck finding either in decent fitment.

Do you just want a wheel that has writing on it, lol? If so, get Weds SA90.

I certainly appreciate you not launching a mis-information campaign against me, as it would seem you have ample time to do so. :)

And actually, if the wheels were in the fitment that I initially inquired about, you wouldn't have to explain the reason for a sudden outburst of maniacial laughter to your co-workers, for there would be no "simmode1 sponsored fail" for you to celebrate.

Maybe i'll put em' on the beater 93 accord..

Thanks for your "help". And thanks to everyone kicked some info my way.

and "welcome to the forum" to me i guess.. geez.
