Aren't the rewinds replica's of the watanabe's..only with a 0 offset instead of say a +20 or whatever the Watanabe's are?

Also, if you haven't actually bought some wheels yet, you might look at the new 15" wheels sport max just released. They have a nice polished lip...4 lug with a 0 offset.

Yeah, that seems pretty gay.

"here are three of the same wheels in varying degrees of knockoffness"

The only cool old school wheel is the CST Demon Camber in 16x8 -15.

Everything can go back to being on some heap of a Corrola.

Yeah, this poll sorta sucks.

I do really like the Rewinds, it's almost certainly the first wheels I'll buy for my S13 (powdercoating centers red on a white car), but as for legit old-school wheels, my list would look sorta like this:

-SSR Starsharks-Work Equip 01-SSR Mk 1-Longchamp XR-4-Watanabe F8F-Panasport C8-SSR Mk 2 & Mk 2 R

Tons more than this, but I need to go eat lunch, or I'd add more and link pictures. Sorta depends on what your definition of "old school" is too. To me, "old school" means like 1970s or early 1980s, so Nismo LMGT2's don't count, et cetera. If you expand your time range, you could add a lot more.

i believe panasports hold the original design, am i right? All of the old british MGs and minis would rock those back in the day then SSR japan took the design.. now theres a lot of copies

starion wheels are dope for sure. they're like 16x9 -10 and 16x8 +0 or something. watanabes in good sizes are probably the best old school wheels
