    konig rewind or watanabe wheels

    I have an eye for the wheels that the corolla ae86 uses in initial D. I've found a few sets around and was wondering if et40 would do ok on my car.

      Rewinds come in 4x100. They're 15x7, so you'll want 20mm spacers or hub adaptors (recommend the latter).

      I too had an eye on these wheels. ;)

        What are hub adapters?

              Similar to Panasports or Mini wheels. I dig. I think they'd look ok - I saw mini wheels on an e30 cab and they looked great.

                  The pic is to scale Erik. Duh. Like your computer screen could show a 15" wheel. Come on. :roll:

                    I was looking at the bolt holes, and they just look too close to the edge of the rim...
                    Not a fan of those rims anyways.

                      Well, SORRRY. We can't all have Racing Hart replicas, you know.

                          A spacer that bolts onto the stock hub of the car with its own bolts, thereby replacing the stock wheel mounting point and allowing you to use your stock wheel bolts instead of longer ones that are inherently weaker. Makes mounting wheels with FWD offset just as easy as stock wheels. They make them in 15-35mm.

                              Or spacers with a stud kit, like I have. It's easier than mounting stock wheels.

                              Real Watanabe's look a lot better than the Konigs.
