I have a set of forged Desmond Regamaster Evo's in 17X8 +35 and 17X9 +38 5X114 that im considering selling. I had the wheels custom powdercoated mat black and they are in mint condition (No chips, scratches, dents, or curb rash). I have put about 5000 miles on the wheels since I had them powdercoated. I do have the original boxes, some (not all) of the original stickers, hub centric rings, and owners manual. I am gonna keep running these on my FD until I find a new home for these bad ass wheels.

Now for a little backround on these wheels. These rims are forged in Russia and are used by many JDM super tunners because of their high stregth and low weight. Spoon also uses Desmond Regamaster Evo's (Just re-named the SW388). I have also read that these rims are forged with tank armor but this could be a myth.

Anyways, im looking for $1500 SHIPPED in the lower 48 states. Anyone will tell you this is a steal for such a rare and sought after set of wheels.

Thanks for the advice but those are regular Regamasters, not Evo's. Evo's are lighter & stronger than those. I dont even know if plain Regamasters are forged...

I dont know if these will clear coilovers/z brakes cause I had them on my FD. Im pretty sure they will though considering the offsets arnt crazy high but I will find out next week for sure when dct223 comes down.

I will ship to Canada but we would have to split the shipping cost cause its not in the lower 48 states.

Dont worry about it SW20.

Definitely not trying to be an ass, but just wanted to share info.
Z brake clearance is based on spoke design. I think think 300zx wheels are what, 16x7.5 +30 ? The offset isn't crazy high or low, it's just that the spokes allow clearance for the caliper. :bigok:

Good luck with the sale. Those are some sexy wheels.

Just adding some info for ya Chris... on s13 you'll need a 3mm spacer to clear coilovers on the front, and z32 brakes will be fine after the 3mm spacer.

Hmmm, just wondering if theres is no interest or if my price is too high???

The rims sold for about twice this much new and mine are in mint condition so im having a hard time figuring out why I still have them.

i think its the offset honestly
i sold mine for 1200 and i had 4 buyers lined up when i even hinted at it.
and black is SO BORING. no defnition adn these wheels are plain jane.
so black is like the worst u could have picked

either way i love the REGAS, thats why i bought them. wicked light!

forged for life!

LOL... first its becuase they are RDM and not JDM.. 2nd its cus zilvians love the super low offset wheels, so they can have super camber and ugly fender pulls to fit them =P haha

dont worry.. this weekend you can take pics of them on my car and see the true potential of RDM REGAS!! and maybe MORE potential buyers

thas pretty good sizing to me imho on a s13 with no pulls. maybe a 10 up front and a 15 in the rear, for slightly more flooshing. but yeah, super ubar leet low offset whell needed for mos zilvians.

Thanks guys.

Well I got my set of multi piece bbs' in from JDM land and I have a major fitment problem that will not allow me to run these wheels so im gonna have to keep these Rega's for much longer than I thought. I hate false advertising... BLAH
