Alright so my 240SX is rather stock, and i have been looking into buying rims for it, i dont want any huge 18's and i dont even think i want 17's, not really sure though, but i found the wheels that i want, and this is where i need your help, i dont know who makes them, i saw them in the February edition of Modified Magazine on a dark blue AE86 on page 160, i know i have seen them somewhere before, and i know you cant really see them on the AE but does anyone know where to get them. Any help is appreciated thanks!

are you talking about the one with the meshies in the top left or the one in the lower right?

if your talking about the one in the lower right those look like they might be watanabes...but i dont know about the meshies

go check the suspension/wheel section. Someone there knows of a place to get those in "konig" for around 600 and in great offset.

Thanks guys for all the help, thanks for saving me some money, i think i will probably get the konigs if they have nice offsets, and are cheaper but im not sure, does anyone know where to get the actual Watanabe's if not, its no problem! Thanks for all of your help guys!

i dont think you should get konigs. i dont trust their quality just like i dont trust apc. anythng to me that seems overly cheap (could) be manufactured poorly but i dont know. if you want you can get some used from some wheel importers. go get some watanabes you'll look like the initial d car =). gogo magnesium
