Guest ON3GO Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 i know of that site, but it doesnt seem they have my size's i want in the Type-B... im still lost on colors for the rims.. anybody have any pics of them on a Blue Z (like a bright bayside blue color)? like gunmetal and all the colors rims? mike P.S. after looking at the rims it seems that the Type-B doesnt have that deep dish i want.. unless u can get the Type-B to look like that Type-R rim.

stony Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 JAPAN!!!!! if you know someone ... but if you get a real watt in that size your looking at 500-700 a wheel and that in the 15 inch 16 and 17 s are even more expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest das280zx Posted May 13, 2003 Share Posted May 13, 2003 I think japanparts.com can get them. They are prohibitively expensive though. I emailed them, at leas I think it was them, and they were very nice and emailed back promptly. Try it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRAD D Posted May 13, 2003 Author Share Posted May 13, 2003 I talked to a guy at http://www.wheelchoice.com and he said around 2000$ for a set of 17x9 but that was just off the top of his head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ON3GO Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 see i love those rims but i want more of a lip in the rear and front........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zline Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 those wheels on the green car are 17" Type B's. When buying used watanabes, be sure to make sure they ARE watanabes by looking at the center cap, Black Racing makes a knockoff watanabe, theyre identical save the cap, which bares the logo: BR where the watanabes have 3 doves flying on them, if you're so lucky as to see the 3 doves with a R on a F8/RS8 (wahtever we're calling em this week)...do yourself a favor as thats the only way to tell the type R from the A & B besides the weight factor. Also, if Watanabes end up being to expensive, and you like a deep dish wheel, These are soem good ones from panasport: G7 C8R (3 piece ultralightweight 380 each for 16x8 - avail in any bs and size) *edit* here's a pic of the G7s...one of my FAVE wheels EVER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
