I'm no wheel guru, so I have a question for those who may know more.

I'm curious to know if Crimson Racing Sparco NS3's are somewhat rare. I see many of the NS2's, but hardly anything on the NS3.

I picked up a set for a decent price, so I was curious since I couldn't find much info on them..

I wouldn't say that they're the "rarest" set of wheels out there, but they're fairly uncommon. I do know of two sets in Wisconsin, but that's about it for local sets.

Yea, I knew they weren't going to be super rare, just more uncommon like you said. I like the style and offset, and since I have only seen a handful, I'll refinish them and keep 'em then. Thanks for the reply.

Idk how rare these are but I always see the replicas around.
Watanabe 2-piece GR8 5x114 17x8 +23 17x9 +28
I'm thinking they're pretty rare since I can't find much about them or any others for sale.




This is with 15mm spacers all around so
17x8 +8 front and 17x9 +13 rear

Fender literally sitting on the tire... I need a pull or lower profile tires.


Repolishing the lips by hand, gonna powdercoat the faces some crazy color...

The sad thing is that so many people will say "Nice XXR's!"...

I know!!! Thats why I've decided to go with some color that not run of the mill.
All original parts, even the valve stems!

Including shipping... you're probably looking at $2,000 or so for what you have. But they'll come with center caps.

WOW! I knew they were pricey but I didn't know they would cost that much.
I got them for $550 with 2 good tires, people sell xxr002's here for more then that. I swear Hawaii has so many lowballers.
