I wish I could tell you, there was one site that I saw them on, a few months back, the only thing I know is that they sell for 60000 yin. I am not sure if it is japanese or chinese yen. But i caculated it as Japanese yen and got 576.48 US dollars. It is probably more with impor fees, shipping etc.

here is the direct link : http://www.work-wheels.co.jp/wheels/...led/lsled.html

I'm not going for the ubiquitous tuner look. Did you happen to notice my wheel covers?

No, I am happy with my 15" ENKEI RPOJ-2 rims.

BTW, your handle is somewhat..well, it's like mine, isn't it?

i believe the miata bolt pattern is 4x110 or 4x108

fr130 - I think some one was selling those wheels in the classifieds a while back. I like them, but they are a little too common now, for the price.

4x100. Same as the xB.

It's also the pattern for the e30 BMW 3er (except the M3 of that generation), and Mk1-3 VWs (except ones with the VR6 engine).

Centerbores, on the other hand, are a whole other matter.

Thanks. It's a start...............
Notice how that 14 is different. Not as deeply inset. I like.
I'm in the middle of fabbin' some spats/fender skirts/wheel well covers or whatever you prefer to call 'em and I'll have to lose my moons to put 'em on. So, I'm looking for something similar. Can't do chrome on TMC, though...........
