      i think i remember this car from craigslist, didn't it come with no motor but an m42 on the side? if so i'm glad to see you got it running. i almost hopped on it myself but i didn't have anywhere to work on it.

        The originals are Hayashi Street. Don't know if these are reps though.

                any issues with vibration at high speed or similar with the wobble bolts?

                I run TSW evos on whatever car I'm dailying, right now it's under the knife but here's a (rather shitty) picture of it when I first got the shell.

                  the offset is legit too. Its like +27 or something.

                            Not really a "direct fit" Requires a lot of the same stuff as wide steelies, chopping the caliper bracket, grinding down the face of the caliper, you'll either need a stud kit or hub rings and then a ~3mm spacer in the front.

                            And just to be clear, they are 15x9 +0, 205/50.

                            Thanks guys!

                              None whatsoever. I machined a set of hubcentric rings since the CB is 60.3 and with the wobble nuts all is well. There isn't a wobble bolt long enough to provide ample "bite" and properly secure the wheel and that's why I went with the stud/nut combo.
