for those who dont know, Watanabe is a classic Japanese brand which has been around for decades. they where very popular in racing during the 70/80's in Japan.

ive done up a price list as below. price is in Japanese yen (instead of AUD so you pay the current exchange rate so if it goes a bit in our favour you reap the savings).

Good work! Are these the 'R type' or "F8" type?
Cheers.

[Breaka]

Is that price in the last collumn for a single wheel or for pair?

Best news I've heard in a while!

[ae71]

as it states these are the type "R" deep dish, big offsets for RWD

"F8" is for FWD

that price is per wheel. not exactly for the faint hearted. but when you want the best!

[Dom86]

Cool. Cheers!

[Andy San]

could you please let me know a price and what offsets (if any) are available in a 14x7.

thanks.

[ROLL3R]

Can you get 13x10 +3 offset?

[ke_70]

have you got pics of the 14x10s?

[ae71]

Andy San PM'd

dont think there is anything anywhere near that positive in 13x10, perhaps in the larger diameters like 17"

ke_70 PM'd

[MR86ER]

how much for a full set of 15x8 posted to melbourne
pm me
cheers

[ae71]

disregard prices in this thread, they are out dated. prices now cheaper then listed.

PM sent

[topher]

can you provide prices on on 2x 15 x 8.5 -6 and 2x 15 x 8 0??? cheers

[hachi_dk]

what are the prices like now for a pair of 15x8.5 and a pair of 15x9 posted to melbourne?

[ae71]

around ~2.5k for a set delivered pending exchange rate.

pricing is the same for 15x8~9.5

will PM pricing shortly

[slydar]

hey, i noticed r fitment starts at 8" wide for 14s.. does this make 14x7.5 much cheaper man? im genuinely keen on a set some time in the near future if theyre a little bit cheaper.

[ae71]

prices in this thread are out dates, im now able to do better prices :)

type R start at 8" wide and going up to 12". Type R seems most relivent size and offset wise for ae86 and other 80s RWD

i can check if they still do other A/B type, i dont think there will be a huge saving

[benzo]

Out of interest what sort of price would I be looking at for a pair of 14x8 -6 Type R's?

[jet81j]

also interested in a price delivered for 14x8 -6 please

[benzo]

Aaron your inbox is full :)

[shift_rook]

oh yeah forgot to tell you aaron, clean that shit out

[ae71]

i cleared some shit out yesty :P

also it seems something has been a bit dodgy with international access to this site. i couldnt get on here for 2 days (when my inbox was full). im always contactable by e-mail if im not replyng by PM for some reason (such as i cant access the site).

also will have updated prices for watanabes next week.

[jamesm]
