15x8 +42

 

those are the wheels i'm looking for for my GD3.

 

they almost look like mini cooper wheels

 

ooohwhe dman !!!!! dot wwant!

 

dude they're watanabes! are you nuts!?! mini cooper wheels

ugh these new kids nowadays have no knowledge of old school jdm

 

Pretty sure Watanabes (wanna-bes?) are knockoffs of the original Minilite wheel used on racing Mini Coopers back in the '60's.

 

Yup.

 

RS Watanabe Eight-Spoke F8 (cast magnesium) wheels in 14 x 6 only weigh about 8 lbs.
of course there are dangers to using any magnesium wheels.

 

Panasport makes very similar wheels, both in street versions and ultralight race versions popular in autocrossing.

 

Yeah, i've seen these. i think they're not quite as light weight as the re watanabes, but they're usually a litlte cheaper than the watanabe mags.

if you're into rotas or konigs, they make copies too. rota RBs and konig rewinds.

 

I have these on my GD3... but in a different color.

 

pics!

 

nope... no camera... ex got it in the divorce, and Ive been too lazy to buy another... maybe Ill borrow one of these days.

 

Forget the wheels as those where, is that a jdm parking pole???

 

Yep sure is ....

 

Watanabes are olds school JDMs. Mini wheels are Minilites not watanabes. They used to use Watanbes are old Japanese race cars:

 

Yeah I had the same thought I posted in a thread about this a few mounths back about which was first but I kept getting different answers because I think that the people who I asked were biased to the cars they liked more. but its in the fit shoes furum if anybody cares to read
Rota RB's & Konig Rewind: Same/Different?

 

ur sig is teh shit i cant think of another reason to use refresh mode

 

You right. refresh mode was one of the major reasons I bought a fit, I pretty much leave it like that cause nobody but females ride with me anyway, Plus I hang out in the street alot so if I am chillin then I am more than likely going to chill in the car I looking into a flip down dvd player with RCA jack to make better use of refresh mode. I also like yours I had a stick figure getting head from another stick figure that I photoshopped but I got a signature violation warning but I could email you it if you want to see it. I thought it was funny but others didnt

 

Dude, I want one of those parking poles! Where can I find one? I will admit that I am the worst at parallel parking....
