Wtd: watanabe rims with negative offset

[davidgarratt]

Still trying to find a set of watanabe rims with negative offset

Can get them from bob jane with negative 4 offset brand new but they want a stupid price for the set.

anyone know of any?????

[ae71]

you mean superlites from bob-jane... BIG difference between superlites and watanabes, quality, weight and price..

maybe try ajps, he can prob do a better price

[hitoriko]

superlites are good
the other chinese brand is the one you wanna watch out for

[Whip]

you can get the 15x8 Superlights from AJPS

Pretty aure they are around the $1000 mark

[ae71]

still genuine watanabes are much better than superlites in every way bar the price :P

[ae71]

seeing as every arsehole tyre shop sells them the supers would be more readily available yes.

superlights are heavier and of less quality in my opinion. aus made or jap made doesnt consern me i just dont like generic producing countrys products (china, korea etc).

having said that im not rushing out to buy new wats because of the cost.. you can get a set of supers for the price of one wat delivered. id consider buy a set of supers with no dish :( (15x8 and 10)... or just wait and get some wider jap wheels.

well the 13" superlites i have with 220 65 rubber on them are light as!

well the 13" superlites i have with 220 65 rubber on them are light as!

compare them to a watanabe in the same size or even a 14" and they'll be heavy as all shit ;)

Watanabe 15x8 -4.5 aluminium load rating 555kg (not confirmed), weight 7.78kg (weight taken from watanabe website)

EDIT: Found it!

Superlight 15x8 -4 standard alloy load rating 875kg?, weight 9.3kg

Can someone confirm the load rating of the Wata's? Should be stamped onto them somewhere.

yea they were superlites an i think that were about $1300 so just wanted to look around first to see of i can get something cheaper and i would perfer watanabes anyway but superlites are ok
