RS Watanabe was one of the old companies that started making that design.
Check out http://www.takumiproject.com/ if you can afford to buy new ones.
Used JDM imported sets come in pretty frequently.
Check eBay and all the typical JDM wheels sites.

I think Sportmax makes a knock-off version...

Panasport also makes their version, but those things are pricey!

idk, but i think with a clean set of over fenders, coilover, good offset, and enough camber and they'd look REALLY clean on an FC...

Look at the Rota RB.

They make them in 16x8 with a 35mm offset and the correct bolt pattern, but hardly anyone has them yet. It's a special order deal.

Panasport racing has a set and I think they might be cheap, I know they make them for RX7's, my FD has a set of different model of wheels from Panasport and they didnt need adaptors.

Doh...dumbasses.

Panasport is either made in Europe or Japan.
I forgot already, but it is NOT the Phillipines.

ROTA IS FROM THE PHILLIPINES.

Stop spreading bad information.
