I know vintage jdm wheels are scarce in 5 lug, but im looking to see what options are out there. Ive done some internet searches but im trying to cut to the chase and see if anyone can post some pics of wheels I might not have seen, or even some that may be for sale. Im aiming for a 15x8 around 0 offset. I cant really do adapters because it would require about 35mm to do so, and changing my bolt pattern seems like more work than I'd like to take on at the moment.

The specs im after are going to be kinda challenging. Needing something like a 15x8 or 16x8 et 0 in 5x114.3.
The Work wheels I got were misrepresented in the Japanese auction ad and ended up being +46, not +18. Pretty shady. So my original plan to do new outer barrels and widen the wheels to 9" wont work now due to the high offset. Cant even mount them on the rear because they hit the trailing arm.Last edited by Keith602; 06-12-2015, 06:43 PM.

Have them split on a lathe and upsize them to a 15in. Add 0.5in in width to both the barrels and the lips when you have them made and you'll get close to 8 +0 at an 8 +2.
That's unusual for a Japanese auction ad to be really out and have misleading photo(on yahoo?)......usually they are so particular because they know how particular each other are. I've never had a wrongly advertised wheel from Japan(apart from the offset maybe being a few mm out by their own measurement).....and I've bought 50 or so sets/pairs.
