Received the wheels today, bit disapointed they are a one piece affair even though they have what looks like legit bolts with serrated flange nuts on them. Never seen that before!
Plans are coming into place to make a 2" outer dish ourselves and machine the wheel to register it, then drill it using the wheel as a template.
Cool thanks for the Identification Bro! Think your right must be a two piece as the face is cast and the barrel is spun no other way that could happen. I paid £150 for them delivered so it's no biggie if they get turned into side tables..

No problem, I only know what kind of wheels they are because these are similar(or exactly) what Iketani had on his S13 in the early Initial D mangas. you could possible destroy the lip and cut it off of the wheel/face then replace it with wider lips.
Oh cool love me a bit of Initial D, never seen the Manga's though will have to look that up. I have had a quote for wider outer lips at £800 for a set of four, that's a little too rich for me right now think I would rather spend the money on the MS and try and make some...
Car drove without fault the 250 miles on the home journey, absolutely addictive engine tone and watching the nose point skyward every time you hit the go button was awesome. Working on the getting the interior detailed and putting a few parts back to standard ( Gear knob and pedals) and have ordered some -35mm springs for now as there is quite a lot of body roll through the corners.
Had a good go at detailing the interior and exterior for the photos needed for the agreed valuation for insurance purposes. Spent half a day getting in all the nooks and crannies with solvent spray and cotton buds on the inside cleaning off all the buildup of makeup and hand cream I expect having had 3 previous lady owners. They agreed a value of £4K, even though I payed slightly more then that I'm not too fussed as the handling and driving experience is just magical. Too good in fact to kill it with too much lows, tbh it feels pretty low already once driving in it and the arches are so solid I don't want to even rub those muthafukers once!
