    I honestly can't remember. Car is in the shop right now getting the rear main seal replaced because over the course of two weeks since H2Oi I've leaked about 5 qts. of oil all over my apartment garage. Should have the car back by the weekend and I'll definitely let all interested parties know as soon as I get the chance.

    you guys wouldn't like posting for sale threads and having people shit on them would you? ;)

    op, I'll try to find that thread for you gimme a min

    Appreciate the backup man. I just wanna mention too that, like the mod's, these wheels are almost perfect fitment less your personal preference. They don't need spacers although I've never run a BBK so I can't give you the assurance on that one. The only difference between his and mine I would say are our lips. He looks like he might be 4x4 but mine are an inch different in width and I have bigger lips in the back than the front.

          Haven't found time to check it out. I'm planning on swapping bumpers in a couple days and throwing some loctite in a couple places so I'll definitely be checking. Sorry for the wait. I appreciate the patience guys.

                Also, I'm about to put some pics up that I just went to take of the damage on the wheels. And just to clear things up in case you guys were wondering, I'm running Kumho's up front 195/50 and stretched Nankangs in the rear 205/50.

                  Here are pics of the damage. This first one is a "knick" on the front driver's side wheel. The first picture is a close-up of the damage and the second photo right beneath it is a step-back just so you can see how small it really is.



                  And zoomed out...



                  And this next one is a picture of the rear driver's side wheel. This rash is so minor I could probably rub it away with a rag, but it's just deep enough to not be I suppose. But this teeny blemish is about 1/2" long and not deep at all. You don't even notice it unless you're on your knees.



                  The other two wheels have no damage on them whatsoever

                    those appear to be $150 each.

                    a set with brand new tires shipped to your door should be 900-1000

                      Okay guys,

                      Well I tried to figure out the branding mystery while I was doing some rear suspension work today and honestly could not find a specific brand name. Although I did find a couple things embossed into the hub. This is all new information to me, so I researched a little.

                      (Check out the picture)

                      What that says is JWL, which stands for Japanese Light Wheel Alloy. So these wheels are Japanese and being stamped with JWL means that these wheels have passed a, "compilation of standards defined by the Japanese Government to ensure the vehicle's safety for aluminum road wheels. Every wheel put to market must be tested to meet JWL standards before a wheel can be put out to market in Japan."

                      The other logo you see is VIA, which is the, "Vehicle Inspection Association Registration System. VIA marking can only be engraved on the wheel if registered by Japan Light Alloy Automotive Wheel Testing Council after strict quality tests by the authorized testing facility on the adaptability of JWL or JWL-T technical standard."

                      According to a few people, JWL is THE standard in a lot of aftermarket wheels and a lot of people won't touch them unless they're stamped with this.

                      I got all of this information from this link:




                      So I couldn't find the manufacturer of the wheels, but I did find proof of the legitimacy of their forging. I know that's not what a lot of you were expecting and it's not really what I was expecting either, but I hope this is satisfactory for curious parties.
