Kinda look like Rota Slipstreams.
Didn't he have Watanabe's in the earlier episodes?
In the live action movie, it looks like he's sporting Work Equips.

Racing Hart Tracer's; if you took out the center cap, it would almost look alike.

The FC only had Watanabe 8-spokes in the winter scenes (so they were his winter tires).

They still look awesome though :D (But sooo expensive for such a simple wheel)

they were early edition MS-01's. they are getting harder to come by now a days. I asked at the Mazda dealer if there was any chance they could track some down for me and they laughed...so i laughed too so i wouldn't look like an idiot.
