kce Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 So I'm really digging on Watanabes like the ones on shika808's 71. However, they seem pretty expensive... as in $550 a wheel expensive. Can anyone recommend a slightly more affordable wheel that looks similar? I'm more into just the general shape than the name so I'd welcome any suggestions that look similar to the R-types. Thanks.

BluDestiny Posted September 24, 2010 Share Posted September 24, 2010 Rota RB-R, the spokes look different though. $750 for a set. Also XXR has something. 513 or 507 or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edmund Posted September 25, 2010 Share Posted September 25, 2010 Konig Rewind 15" or 14" ONLY! Imho, 16" or up rewind looks weird compare to watanabe, hope this help. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/15x7-Konig-Rewind-Wheel-Rim-s-4x114-3-4-114-3-4x4-5-15-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem53e1666631QQitemZ360263870001QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories Ed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Globerunner513 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 a Japanese company called "Black Racing" made knockoffs of the Watanabe's, but they're crazy hard to find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bahraini240z Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Xxr 513s.. Great deals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kce Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 Any chance someone has a picture of 240z running XXR 517s in 16x8 that I can see? I'm sure there's one in the wheel show thread, but I probably shouldn't be digging all the way through it, while I'm at work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mistah mofro Posted October 1, 2010 Share Posted October 1, 2010 513's look more like panasports though, watanabes spokes are more spread and have more agressive bends on there spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
