Default I'm a lucky SOB :)

I just found two more 15x6.5 wheels to match the (6) that I already own . These two are so new you can smell it!!

This what I saw when I opened the box!


The adapter, 17mm lugnuts, 17mm deepwell socket, 90* valve stems and the 32mm centerlock socket is under the adapter.





Everything plus the torque wrench that came with the wheels


Some of you already know about my wheels but I'll let the rest of you guys take a couple guesses . When they were in production the cost of one wheel with the adapter was $1200.

Here are a couple 14" RWD setups that are currently for sale.

Only one is available


Complete set



18" set for R33 GTR


Sorry!! I am totally stoked right now!!!!

Pics of one set on my car.


Pics of the other 2 wheels wrapped in 215/50-15 ADVAND A048 super softs


Test fitting the 300mm rotor /4piston R32 Skyline caliper kit


Freshly washed before a drag meet


1998 - slammed with Tein N1's and NAa:


Install is pretty simple:
Remove the old wheels
Install the adapter and the torque the 17mm lugnuts
Align the pegs on the inside of the wheel with the holes in the adapter
Torque the 32mm locknut and then intall the safety pin

:D

I guess I need to sell my Regamasters that have never seen any road time

It's as SS Works kit that uses an aluminum adapter to mount shaved R32 calipers. The rotors are 300mm Mugens that have been repainted and redrilled for 4x100. I am actually working on my car again so it should be cruising this ROCK pretty soon.
