    Epsilon Japan 4x100 Find!

    I was perusing my local craigslist last night and about had a heart attack. I promptly emailed the person and luckily I was the first so I had the privilege of buying these today!

    4x100 15x7" with a PCD of 57.1 and as far as I can tell the offset is +13. They came off of an e21 and the man I bought them from bought the e21 new in 1982 and in 1983 he bought these. He kept them stored in the basement for the last 10 years or so and it shows. The only thing is that some time in the 90's he had them taken apart and repainted from the original gold to black. Enjoy

                          Nice score man, I love these wheels. I want to buy the 16x9.5, but I do not have a need for more wheels haha.

                            I will post some pics soon enough. I have found some 3" lips for the back in CA and hopefully will be working out that deal in the next couple of days. Once I get the centers refinished in the original gold or negaro and have the lips all polished I will get some good rubber and then post some killer pics. I am thinking that these in gold with 9" rears with some 225/50/15s out back would be bad ass on the Olive Drab cabrio!

                              Not sure how gold will look against your color. I can kinda see it if I picture a nice golden mustard with black lips. What way are you thinking for the gold?
