you might want to try jspec.com or takakaira.com.

I know the owner of jspec.com has the watanabe wheels on his own car, and he also sold a set of black racing rims to someone else I know.

The place I go to is in Rosemead, California. Its called "So Cal Alterations" or "ALTA"(for short). They basically have everything there, and theyre all used wheels but some new. I always see SSR mesh wheels and theres always Watanabes there too. A lot of drift wheels! last time i went, they were prepping some Dori 2 mesh wheels in the back. A set of Wats can probably run around $5-600, i think, maybe cheaper.

Jspec.com = EXPENSIVE
Wheelchoice.com = EXPENSIVE
So Cal Alterations = *good prices*

Jspec.com isn't expensive. It just depends on what you want to get.

He said if i want to order new set of Watanabe &nbsp;rims , is gonna cost me like $2400 or so with Tires only 17" too.. i was wondering if Jspec.com or anybody would carry some used one.. ??

Once I get a scanner I will scan some of the rims you listed. Presonally I think the watanabe rims are ugly. Over here they put those on S-15's and well I can say it looks crappy. To each his own. I posted a list of stuff I can get, that only scratches the surface. Since I am all about getting the stuff my fellow Zilvia members I am fair with the cost. I go and buy it. I will charge 7% and you pay the shipping. It is rigodamndiculous to see the watanabes out there for $1300 That is what I saw on one of the links.
