fisch Posted January 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Not trying to be a dick but 1/2 of them are and or look like they were made By American Racing. Half of them? Well I certainly will bow to the experts like yourself. I am no master of JDM wheels. I guess I prolly should have left this thread to the aficionados. Just got a little Yahoo Japan crazy. The translations weren't the best but I certainly tried to edit out anything that said American Racing. (The example you made looks like two different wheels to me BTW. The little horsies and all.) I grabbed most of what I did because they were 14 15 and 16 inches. Just haven't seen that much play from American makers for those sizes in a 6-lug TRUCK wheel. Most seems to be 17+. Maybe I should remove the 'JDM' from the title. Or feel free to point out the american ones and I will gladly remove them. Quote Link to comment
turbojunker Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Not trying to be a dick but 1/2 of them are and or look like they were made By American Racing. For example these look like these and are on craigslist right now for 80$. http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/pts/1518508014.html Nothing about those is the same other than being a solid aluminum wheel with six lug hole in them.

motavated Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Hey I am just saying. I don't have the cash. If I did I would buy some bad ass JDM ones in an instant. But I dont... I would settle for the ones for 80$ since they look similar. Quote Link to comment

Some one wise here told me not to buy expensive wheels when my truck still needed lots of work. It made sense... I listened and waited... I thank that person... Edit: Ohh Btw I asked Zeto zeto this question if he sees it. How much was it to to buy and ship your wheels over? Just to get an idea... I dont want to start and argument, it was not my intention.

Maybe dreaming a bit. (Maybe laughing a bit too! There is some weird stuff out there, and it ain't all pretty!) I've tried to find threads that focused on Japanese six lug truck wheels and just haven't found many. Especially smaller sizes. Thought it would be cool to throw some in one spot. I appreciate you adding the pic of your friends wheels! Quote Link to comment

You can make any rust bucked look bad ass slammed with a good set of wheels right? :D I would like to stack them up and create a wall with all the wheels I would like to have. :) Quote Link to comment
Guest kamakazi620 Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Where do you think American Racing /Modern/prime and other wheel companys get their ideas??? I think the only cool rims america has come up with is Cragar SS 5 spokes and kidney bean slots!! Quote Link to comment

I've never spent more than $60 for a set of wheels. I've thought about it, but always spent the money elsewhere. Spray paint and shaved $50 junkyard tires goes a long way sometimes! :rofl: Quote Link to comment

fisch Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Great thread Fisch! I really love some of these sick rare rims...but for some reason I just keep rockin my steelies with chrome beauty rings from the 50's... :cool: I am with you Denver! You know I am all about some steelies, wide whites, and bullet lugs! Heck I would take a set of skinny (4-5.5 inches wide) 6-lug slots over almost any of these for my own rides. But I have always been curious about what is really out there, you know? :P Quote Link to comment
denveratsun Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Hey Fisch... I fully hear you man! I would love for my 521 to look like this sick Toyota...just a little more "Badaz" than my current theme! I know, I know..not 6 lug...but still I can get with the awesomeness!!! :cool: Quote Link to comment
