    As some of you may or may not know.
    Hayashi racing made a nice set of Rims called Sakura's in the early eighties. They came with really cool offsets.

    They have re released them.



    At first I thought it was for a set.. but
    I read it again. about 900 a corner.

    I know made in Japan means it will be very good quality but almost 4k for a set of RIMS. Damn.
    Silver 86 Trueno Hatch.

    fucking nice looking rims, personally i couldnt justify spending that type of figure on four metal circles, however if one managed to win lotto, one would purchase such rims and the drop of a hat.

    someone buy them then i will buy them off of you so they are second hand and therefore cheaper.
    thanks

    I have bought some..
    14x8 -11
    Not cheap either, actually, they burnt fucking holes in both my side pockets and my back pockets. They will be worth it though, they are so damn pimp. I'm pretty sure this is the last ever run to happen on these, but again it could just be the jappo salesman trying to get more buyers.

    I can't wait for them to arrive, Will be going on my car as soon as the get here and I will be flaring the guards when they are on

    Not too rare, any average joe can get them, just a matter of timing i guess. I had been keeping my eye out for 6 months or so before now, then I got an email from a guy I know in Japan saying there was another run coming up and if i wanted in on it.

    After much thinking about it I decided to bite the bullet and get some, a good idea/investment through my eyes, but probably not through some other peoples.

    They arent rare at this moment as they are doing another run, but after this they will turn back to hard to find parts.

    AU$1 > 100Yen = WIN!!!

    The Hayashi/Techno Racing Yayoi a.k.a. Sakura or Cherry Blossoms are beautiful wheels Personally I think they suit older cars like vintage corolla TE-27 or hakosuka KPGC10 and other nostalgic classics rather than KE70's and AE86's but would still look hot none the less

    Patric these wheels are an investment and you will have them for years, even if you change cars I'm sure they'll find a home on your next project.
