What do you think about these wheels?

[erikbrabus]

Classic Rare JDM Wheels I plan to intall on an oldschool lancer Boxtype....

This is the type of car->



Pic of planned wheels ->


Offset of the wheel is already sticking out by 5mm up front and just needs about 10mm or less at the back so its matches the front.

Wheels are 15's.

Corrected my previous post. Now it shows the sample pic of the type of car.

I agree it looks like the OE wheels of a Vette C4. These wheels came out at the same period as the vette... around the 80's.....

The OE wheels of the Lancer for this model is almost the same disc type design. ->


Wanted an upgraded but still era correct nostalgic wheel

I was able to get a set of 4 which is a very old stock but the wheels are brand new and preserved.

The pic above is just a sample but the color is the same.

wish i could find a stock of new retro wheels! ,
i love the fact that the tubines are left and right handed its a sure sign they were not manufactured to a budget !,

those wheels are a cool find. should look good on that car too.

The wheels are cool, but I think they're a little mismatched on a Lancer. The wheels have too many curves for a car that doesn't have enough. I think these would look great on a something like an FC RX7.

But I DO like the fact they they're paired directionals. I say go for it.

I think they will look amazing on it.

Test fit front...wheels out a bit... engine not installed yet..

nice pickup man, Manaray Turbina-S are pretty rare wheels that not many people know about
They were only available in 6.5J +16 in 14 or 15 inch diameters.

Keiichi Tsuchiya used to rock these on his AE86

i like those wheels, should look sick

Thanks! You're right on the money. Pretty lucky to find a preserved brand new set that was never sold cause the other 3 pcs. were lost for quite sometime in storage and was only found until recently. Hence, got all 4 pcs as brand new.
