The Not-So-Ultimate Classic JDM Wheel Thread

[ben]

Ok, so we all know that there's nothing that brings out the true character of a nostalgic car better than slamming it on a set of old skool wheels, right?

With your help, we are hoping to compile a list of the best of classic JDM wheels for your nostalgic ride. Many of these photos have been culled in the past few weeks from ebay, Yahoo Japan auctions, or various forums but please jump in and post your own photos of your own vintage metal hoops, or just images you've come across to add to the collection.

We're not even sure if all the names are correct. We're just going by what the auctions said, so please correct us if you see any mistakes!

Here are the new hoops for my Honda Coupe 9s. Enkei Focus 3 peice wheels. 14x7 cost me $460.00 delivered Sydney to Melbourne inc tyres. The unusual 4x120 PCD meant i got a good deal on them because nobody wanted them..................now I need to find some nice black fender flares!

Those wheels are awesome! Nice find, and nice car as well! I love the old Mugen wheels that nobody seems to have mentioned yet:
CF48:

Those had a plate that bolted on like the SSR aero wheels up further in the thread, more often than not you can't get those anymore because they're broken.

The black Hayashi's with the cross are Command 500's. The mesh style Hayashi's are 503's aka Perrier.

There was also another old school Hayashi mesh Called Command 700's.

first off, top thread.
didnt realise there were so many different wheels from japan.
love some of the names too... wonder rabbit!! LOL!!

the ones you called "turbines" had a copy made here in australia by Cheviot Wheels, and were called "Hurricane".

[steve]

Mucho thanks to everyone who's been contributing pics of their wheels. We know this list is far from complete, and probably has some incorrect names in there somewhere. But let's keep them coming!

[driver109x]

Hayashi racing wheels for a subaru 360. I've never seen any aftermarket wheels for a 360 before. Check the price, 200,000 yen That's like $1700

Here are a couple wheel styles I've had over the years.

These were supposedly called Riverside Riverage's. I cant' confirm that though.


And I have no idea what these were called. One guy told me they were Tomcats, but then I saw Tomcats above and they look nothing alike.

[TSiSS350]

Petano, I have always admired your cars and you taste. Your celica was the inspiration for the model Celica that I posted in the Model Car thread. Awesome car!

TSiSS350,
Thank you!!! That's probably one of the best compliments I've ever had. I appreciate it, and to be honest I regret ever selling that Celica.
