Not sure if anyone on here wants these for a Subaru/VW/Toyota daily driver...
For Sale:
RS Watanabe F8F
Size: 15x7"
Bolt Pattern: 5x100
Offset: Unmarked, but measured to be in the +35mm range
Condition
There is curb rash on each wheel, paint is fading mid spoke, and are in otherwise decent condition considering their age. No bends or cracks present when I inspected them. All 4 wheels have the original RS Watanabe Valve stems and caps intact. RS Watanabe lugnuts available for an extra $80 (M12x1.5 not subaru/nissan lug pitch!)
History
I bought these locally from a guy who had them on a Toyota Carina in Japan. He didn't know much about the wheels, but it seems that 5x100 was a custom ordered bolt pattern, making these very rare to find in Subaru fitment. I've yet to mount tires on them, and I am starting to realize that I'll likely sell the car I bought them for before I get around to it.
Location
All wheels located in Wichita, KS
Price
As mentioned before, these are extremely rare to find in this bolt pattern. A new wheel here in the US would cost approximately $500 per wheel
However, these have been sitting around for a while, and have curb rash, so I am pricing these at $500 for the set
I am open to shipping, but it would be at the buyer's expense.
Contact
My name is Matt, I can be reached to PM on this forum, email to [email protected], or if you'd rather talk on the phone, PM me for my phone number.
Note
I am a reasonable guy, if you can find a similar set of wheels that justify a lower price, let me know and we can talk. However, if your negotiating technique revolves around "Wuts ur bottom $" than don't bother.

They clear 4 piston (and assumedly, Group N) brakes!
