i've been running watanabe's on my car for a while now and each wheel has a +38 offset, so they DO make that offset.

hey turbo2fc3s what lip is that cuz i was going to get that corksport one they were selling at SS9 but it was different. the watanabes that are in my catalog i was refering to are a different series but i wouldn't doubt that they have that offset. nice 7 that was one of my favorites at SS9.

does anyone know other places where i could find RS Watanabes? google doesn't help with this situation. all i need is to buy one more F8F wheel (Front: 16x8 + 35 offset). im tired of lookin at takumiproject.com. i can't really find other places that might sell cheaper rather than full price. i asked the guys and they told me it'd be a special order-$520!!! im already getting 3 of them for that price from a friend!
