Hey guys,

As above has anyone heard of this brand?

Currently buying my R34 and the owner says I can have them for $500 + Stock Rims, they're Black with a red strip on the edge, I'm pretty sure it was custom powder-coated (Glossy/bumpy).

Not sure if they're worth $500 minus however much stock rims are worth, I quite like the look of them, but not sure if they are worth it.

This is pretty much all I know,

17", EDO Branded, Custom powder-coated and came on another car owner had imported from Japan.

Google didn't yield any results, so any help is appreciated :)

low ball. offer him $250 and say he can keep the stockies. he might turn it down but he might also go lower on price. if you like them then why not, unless you can get something else you like for around the same money of course. Whats the width of the rims and ofset? make sure you see them on the car first so you don't get home and decide you don't like them.

he says he'll trade the stockies for them? do you like them? nothing wrong with them? if you'd prefer them then stockies are worth 3-400$.. so essentially costing you approx $200.. if you prefer them over the stockies then go for it.. 200 dollars isnt the end of the world

Yea, they were on the car when I first went to look at it, not sure of width/offsets, but they looked good on the car.

They were taken off for RWC though as they had snow tires on.

He is willing to give me the Stockies and the EDO's for $500, the tires on both sets have a lot of thread left (80%?), but the EDO's were removed for RWC as they had snow tires on..

So later on I will have to buy some new tires for the EDO's, but I can use the stockies for now

    • Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.         
    • Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!
    • Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.
    • Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃
