My Fav's :D

[rayray086]

:D Giggity giggity!

I'd like to see the Sakura Cherry Blossoms on a car. I've never seen them actually bolted up. I know they're worth ridiculous money... maybe that's why people don't use them?

[MattyT]

Body organs are worth ridiculous amounts of money, not rims.

I aint feeling any of these. JDM on Euro just doesn't fly with me.

[Jarred]

cant say Im a massive fan of all the really square designs, doesn't work for me. I'll have those mini lites (lookalikes?) tho!

[rayray086]

Yeah, most I wouldn't actually put on my car, but they're just sooo funky!

[KI11Z]

jeez, sum of u are tooo "omg im so euro"! man a lota those rims right there would look the shizzle on any of our mk1/mk2'z!! bring it on! nice find james, and btw . . . where can i find these . . . :D

KI11LZ just type in JDM wheels forum on google and search... I know some people should look out of the square, even the watanabe's look mad as on a Mk3 with the right stance :D

Bring it on :D

[Tim]

some are orright. I think the ones that look questionable are all the 3 and 4 spoke ones. It doesnt seem to matter what the design is. its hard to make them look good.

[ScienceVR6]

4 spoke has never looked good. Didn't look good on the Pulsar ET in the 80's, it didn't look any good on the holden camira, also of the 80's (had the same wheel as a VK calais, but unstead of 5 holes, it had 4.) And it didn't look good on the Nissan Navara ST-R. I have, however, seen some very cool 3 spokers. The VS GTS-R and GTS, and a mate of mines' father had a Civic sedan, dumped on it's guts with a tapering 3 spoke wheel in a 16 that looked horn! I have seen some awsome 3 spokers on drift cars too.

[Lorenz]

Loving soo many of those wheels!
Love old skool SSR reverse meshies, old Impul rims and the Watanabes are some of my favourite :D Longchamps are fat wheels aswell!

So many of those wheels would look really tuff on MK1 and 2s, just needa find some cool old wheels for the MK3 now :P

They get some amazing wheels, the offsets and sizes make them usually!

Most are usually 4x114 :(

Few pics of 1 importers lot of JDM rims forsale at the moment in Aus!

[Pullstarter]

There's some phat rides there, those rims are massive :o

[intensem1]

I Beleive the Shop is in Perth! Infinite Autosports

Mostly have pairs and they are all 4x114. Best bet for people after rims like this would be to get their hubs discs etc drilled to 4x114, have multi fit hubs.

These all have super low offsets and crazy widths and their prices arent give away!

i'm with you on that one. you can't tell me that those vw's look rubbish on jdm rims. yes they are jap rims, but damn they look fat. i hate the whole "im a euro, only euro things for me" :rolleyes:. if thats your mind set, get in a commodore cos we are from AUSTRALIA, not germany.

they don't have to be on old cars, i have some pics of sets on polo's....look nuts. there is an awesome one i just can't find at the minute, but here are some to pass the time.

Hard to see but comes down on the sides more.

here it is! they are not full on JDM rims but are damn close!

[Pullstarter]

JDM light weights FTW! :D Honestly though, the wheel industry would be a sad place indeed without the likes of Rays, Advan, Buddy Club and Enkei etc. They really did pioneer light weight rims that were strong enough for the street at an affordable price.

[rayray086]

The old-school 4 spokes (I think SSR made a version - the name escapes me at the moment) look fantastic, and the PLS versions look awesome on the smaller VAG cars:

I don't mind the 4 spoke Work wheels, but these Work wheels are the ultimate :D Equip 003's

Absolutely loved the look, but crazy offsets meant that they were never destined to be on the car :(
