    Anyone know what these rims are?

    I just went to the junk yard and found these babys!
    They feel HALF the weight of my stock ones and I sorta like the lip they have.
    What are these things?
    It said in the inside that they are from japan and are -jjx15.. <--WTF?
    These tires on the rims are 205/60/15.. but look like they can fit wider tires...
    I just want to know how wide they are... :x
    And what do you think off them?
    They are $11 each with tire, $10 w/out

    BTW: measured it with my hand and it measured out to be about 8" - 71/2''. :?

                              If they are Rikkens then they are Rikkens not by Mazda. As Rikken used to make wheels for across the board most Japanese brands.

                              What is the et on them. Are they straight? How much do they want for them and how much van you refinish them for.

                              In general I never buy wheels from US strip yards as they ask way to much for wheels. Used wheels should not be more than $70 a piece but I go places and they say 200 a wheel, get real.

                                  No, they are really cheap...

                                  $11 each w/ tire OR $10 each w/ out tire... I don't think that's a bad price at all.
                                  I don't know the ET but they didn't seem to rub on the junked car, there was no visible scuff marks anywere..

                                  They are alittle bit dinged up, but they are strieght...

                                  One thing that's bothering me is that the ET might be way off so that I can only run 205 and anything bigger will rub... :oops:

                                  Now I just need to find the ET.... ;)

                                          ok ok.... They are about 40-42 offset..
                                          I've been told..

                                          Will that still fit wide tires?
                                          I don't know the stock offset..

                                              They look like old school Speedline wheels, which are very rare.
