    Default custom hoshino impuls?

    Racking my brains for the last 12 months for wheels for my 2 door ke30. I want 15in rims. Everyones probably seen the custom 15x10 hoshino's on ebay and it got me thinking. I reckon 15x7.5 would fit the rears and 15x6.5 or perhaps 7 would fit the fronts on a lowered ke30.

    Ive only seen hoshino's in 14 inch diameter. I know little about them. I was wondering if I bought 14's at whatever width that perhaps someone could make 15 barrels with a given offset to fit.

    Given not many options to choose from, I wanted something different for my car then the various ssr's etc. Ive never seen hoshino's on a ke30 and 14's just dont do it for me.

    possible?

    Posted here instead of rollaclub because I thought there would be members here with more experience in regards to hoshino's

    um what?
    you say you just saw 15x10 hoshinos on ebay then proceed to say they only make 14'' hoshinos?

    i have seen someone use a 16inch face in a 15inch wheel with a custom barrel. good luck trying to get someone to do it though. its hard enough to find someone that will widen a wheel for you at a decent price.
    if your open to ideas i think these could look good.
    they are compomotive wheels made in the uk.

    I remember seeing Terry talking about using 14" centres for 15s and 16s. I think he had a rage about the corolla scene and went into hiding before he posted pictures of them completed though.

    Yeah I've talked to Terry and it can be done but he doesn't really like doing it for random people much anymore.
