konig rewind -- have you 1st gen guys seen these?
http://www.konigwheels.com/catalog_p...ID=1&ss_id=430
i'm seriously considering gettign a set for my '84 -SE once she's on the road.
i've found them on the net in 14" 4x114.3, even
looks like they normally go for between $100 and $150 per wheel.

I was told the ones with the 4x114.3 bolt pattern are only available with 0 offset. You may want to double check the fit on your SE.
If I could get 15x7 4x114.3 with 40mm offset I'd be all over them for my 7.

If they offered those in a 15 x 7 w/4 x 110 for the non -SE first gens, I'd love to have a set for my car. I would even consider letting the Ronal's I have now go, for a set of those with the dark graphite center and polished lip.

Only issue with the tires/wheels is a slight rub on the sway bar at full lock. Solution, don't turn to full lock.....

Yes I would also get some of those if they offered them.
Rogue, I now know exactly what my car would look like with your wheels.LOL.

Actually
They are modeled more after the Japanese market Watanabe's. You can also get those in our bolt patter but with 0 offset which is fine with some flares. The Watanbe's arent cheap like the rewinds...price i mean. My co-worker has ordered a set for his 77 280z so I will let you know how they look upon closer inspection.
I like them alot, i think it would be cool of some of the 80s wheels would make a comeback and be reproduced by these companies. With the art of drifting it seems more and more 80s japanese cars are comming back and i see tons of people hunting for classic wheels and not having any luck. I know id buy a set of these or some mesh wheels for a first gen if i still had one
I really need to get another first gen.
I really need to get another first gen.

2-piece SSR RS-8s. they weigh marginally more than panasports, but they are a lot easier to repair. this is the only set ive ever seen stateside, although every once in a while ill find a set on ebay.
