Anyone Recognise These Rims?


Recommended Posts

i want them. i dont know what they are and i dont know how to find them.

the guy who was selling them reckons they are work stitch, but i thought the stitch series were all mesh?

they are 17x8 +5 and 17x9+11

any guesses?

Nothing like GTC/GRC

They look similar to the Veilsides, but they have flat spokes, and come with a machined face, or polished face

(and i have owned both types of those wheels..)

Yes they are Stitch wheels, as long as they are 3 piece also.. (i'm sure they were 3 peice, possibly 2...)

Have not seen many sets, probably because they are pretty ugly. Should pay around $800 for a set in decent sizes = 17x8/8.5/9/9.5 is decent offsets,

these come up around the prices of your stitch mesh on yahoo (so very cheap for second hand!)

turns out they are work stitch 5 spokes. funny how some people think theyre ugly, yet i think they look shit hot, but when i look at mesh wheels and want to torch the car theyre sitting under.

cheers for the input guys, if anyone spots a set for sale i would be ever so gratefull for a heads up

they look similar to a set of series 1 volk gtc before they got the face lift.

They are watanabe RS-8's. You can see the watanabe logo on the face of the rim next to the stud holes.

I had both superlights and watanebe's on my AE86 and there is also a noticable difference in the spoke and centre designe.
