A Rare Set Of Shoes!

Check out these new wheels I picked up for my Rx2!

SSR/Watanabe RS-8
15x6.5 (+9) front, 15x7 (+15) rear

Its not too often we can find decent rims for our 4x110 bolt pattern!

I don't think so Smeagol....I believe the're about 5-7 years old.

Picked them up from a company called Top1USA. They can be reached at Top1USA@hotmail.com They are importing a shitload of old wheels. I asked the guy, Tim, if he can get 110 PCD as most wheels he gets are 114. He hit me up a little while back when these turned up. I told him he needs to look for more 110's for us old rota guys

Very nice, make sure you post up some pics once they're mounted, I don't think I've ever seen Wat's on an RX-2 before. Speaking of rare, I never knew SSR made MK-3's in 4x110, check it: http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b50028163




13x9 -27 offset!

I'm still debating whether to do the 114 conversion or hope to get lucky and find some nice 110's like that.

DAMN!!! Those ROCK!!! 9's THose will JUST fit with some killer flares! I want those too!!! I'm turning into a rim hound I swear.

Can we bid on those auctions????

REMat...I actually have a friend who is an authoized SSR distributor. He can get the MKI,II,III and all the mesh (reverse, formula) in 4x110 with the killer phat lip offsets.

Basically he gets whatever comes in the container...he has put the word out for more 4x110's. Give Tim an email at the address above and see what he can do for you.

Guys, also check out these . Very similar, available in different sizes and the PCD is drilled to suit. Your local wheel shop should be able to get them in, and their cheap too.
