Didn't see this one haha, my old wheels are on my brother's car now. They were 16x7 and 16x8 SSR Reverse Mesh. They aren't common, but they do show up on rbmotoring or memoryfab now and then. My choice would be 17x8 or 9's SSR Reverse/Formula Mesh!.

As far as the Sportmax wheels, they are 16x8 0" offest, running 205/50/16 tires. This is a hipari stretch setup for drift, kinda stupid, yes, but it works for some people....

I think that I will just get some street tires for the BBS meshies, and get RPF1's or REAL Watanabes in 114.3x5 bolt pattern, lol. (I dunno why all the hate on the real deal through, I love em.)

I think one of my buddies was selling a set of real watanabes in FC fitment for around 500-600 bucks pre-owned.

Yeah, I talked to a guy about them on 7club a while back, it was the ONLY 114.3x5 set of watanabes that I ever saw.

To be honest, I like the 8 spokes because of way back when I was a kid watching initial D, lol. The ae-86 had those rims, but I liked the FC more.
