This type of rim??
does anyone know of a company that sells rims like this in 16X8 or 17X8? or similar ones to these. especially in Black! i love the look of the old school 8 spoke rims, thanks all in advance!

How much are you willing to spend???
Panasports makes them, but we're talking like $500+ each easily?

The ad says nothing about the wheels, but those things are Watanabe RS-8's.

oh yeah also, do you know if they come in a "deep dish" i mean i still only want about 17x7, or 17x8 for the front and 17x8 or 17x9 in the back but having a nice deep set lip would be soooo sweet!
