no they arent C4.
i dont know for sure, but my guess would be one of the following, Advan, BBS, or 5Zigen.

I *think* they may be Work wheels, but I'm not sure. The size and offset are 17x8.5 +36 F and 17X9+35 rear and they look to be real 2 piece wheels.

Advan Seina II, but they could be anything, maybe some BBS wheel. That design has been copied like crazy.

I don't think the Sienna IIs come in 4 lugh tho, do they? I like these wheels cause of there size and offset especially for 4 lug.

Ya there are little differences, but like I said earlier that is a very common design. Only way to find out the exact company is babelfish that site, they might say what it is.

I wouldn't bother trying to find the exact company cuz that will be a pain, buy an option mag and search through it, you'll find similar designs with web adresses.

After searching around on the king buyer site and a few translations. I found out that the name can't be translated.

This is the name " ƒVƒ…ƒeƒBƒbƒq" Dunno if you can all see that.

This is the wheel

The difference between the advan is the rivets or whatever you call em. The advans don't have that.

A diff b/w the one you posted and the one i did, yours aren't chrome.

Those look very much like the WORK vs-mx w/out the center cap on.

centers are way too different, regardless of the centercap, where the spoke begins its split, then joins then splits again. The other ones are more of a Y than an X

Kid,

Thanks for your help on the wheel! Thosea re the exact wheels cept in chrome. I am trying to find someone who reads japanese and have them translate the text for me. I posted in off topic because I too tried to translate the text but babblefish wouldn't allow me to do so. I will find out what wheels these are...

Shutihhi? Shuti'hi? Something like that, anyone please feel free to correct me. The reason google isn't translating it, is because it's some funky company name in katakana. Never heard of them myself, found this (http://www.tateishi.co.jp/secondhand/18/1808.htm) page though.

So its just some small japanese brand company? Well if you guy sfind anything else post it up, all your help is greatly appreciated. I wonder what the chances are of me being able to get my hands on a set of those?

yea, those wheels are called Shu-ti-hi M3. I guess they're some brand in japan thats unknown to us. If you look in any option mag or carboy theres plenty of pages of wheels that look like the ones you want.

they look like 10 pairs of male connectors in a circle. uh... if you want a similar design, theres the volk gt-u, RH C3, Enkei Bortex RPM 2, BBS LM, Work Equip M1, and even axis supermesh hs.

i dunno... there is tons. just about every major wheel manufacturer has a wheel design like that. In the end, its all about quality. check out wheelspecs.com

More like, the wheels posted were drilled 9-114.3 from the factory with the center cap that goes over the lug holes.

if you COULD get them, the money/time/effort in doing so would be very much no worth it. well maybe to you it might, i can only speak for myself.
