I am once again after some tough Jap rims in good condition. With the way the Yen is at the moment its been a nightmare trying to find suitable wheels in the sizes i'm after for a good price. I need to find a set asap

Sizes i'm after is 17x9 (front) and 17X10 (rear). 18's are also fine depending on price and 1?x9.5 and 1?x10.5 will also be considered.

Wanting something along the lines of TE-37's, VSK-f's, GT-C's, GT-N, SSR Professors, SA-70TT's, TC-105N, etc...

Would really love some 17x9.5 +12 Volk TE37's in Bronze. I've got a set of Volk TE37's 17x9 +18 powdercoated gunmetal grey with tyres if anyone is keen on a swap or outright buy.

Would prefer tyres, although not necessary...

^^ Nope, they had nothing suitable.

Come on, surely someone has some nice wheels for sale!! I'm just spewing i missed the Volk GT-C 18x9 -1 and 18x10.5 +5 that were sale for $3500 with tyres not long ago!

I've got some tough Jap wheels that you might be interested in.

I'm not sure if you are chasing 5 stud pattern but here are the specs:

- WORK MIESTER S2 rims , 5 stud pattern , P.C.D - 114.3

- Front: 18*8 , Offset: +35 , Falken rubber 235/40ZR18 , 75% - 85% tread (approx.)

- Rear: 18*9 , Offset: +38 , Falken rubber 265/35ZR18 , 70% - 80% tread (approx.)

The above rims were purchased new in OZ for a R33 Skyline GTS-T I used to own. The rims were on the car for about 6000kms and were removed when I sold the Skyline. They have spent most of their lives wrapped in sheets in storage. The complete package ( with tyres ) set me back $4900.

They are virtually brand new. If there are any marks on the outer side of the rims, they are extremely hard to notice. You would have to get really close to notice any marks. Hence, they would almost pass for brand new. The inner sides of the rims have one or two marks picked up durring fittment.

I'm asking $3000 for the package. I would consider a swap. The rims would need to suit a Mitsubishi Legnum VR4 AWD ( 5*114.3 stud pattern).

I have attached a photo of rims when fitted to my old Skyline. If interested, give us a call on 0412 124 197. Cheers.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..   
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
