Default Blitz Type 01's rare rim and even rarer rear sizes

**** 1400 PICKED UP *****



I'm not exactly sure on the model name.... but none the less these are very rare rims...

a little bit of history... i bought these early last year overseas (in japan) and waited quite a while to get them... they came off a supra and are thus supra specific (so it'll fit SC.GS for sure)... i got them and used them for a good 2 weeks before i put my work rims on..... and these have since just collected dust in my garage

the rims are in good condition (but not perfect)... when i got them.... the rears have welds spots on the inside of the rim, the faces (some spokes) have small light scratches.... but nothing major.

i recently got the lips refinished at a local rim shop so everything is good.... these are 2pc wheels so you can take the face off and have them painted another color if you like (though i personally think they are fine). I also had the rim shop double check the structure and integrity of the wheels, some weld spots he redid and others he just touched up. He assures me that the wheels are fine and true.

sizes: 18x8.5 front and 18x10.5 rears with offsets: 36 front and 42 rear and supra TT brake friendly

once again... the rims themselves are rare... BUT the sizes and offsets are even more RARE.... check the lip!

TT brake friendly

on my car


refinished lips



asking 1650 shipped and i'll throw in a spare set of rear SO3s (285's) with 95%tread)

figureing out the offset on them is easy. when i did my rims i was only off .5 mm which isnt crap. pm me and i will tell you how so you can post it up on here for the curious.

i'm open to any non-offending offers....

I think i'm pretty set on selling these wheels now... i know i haven't been too serious in the past about these (just so hard to let go) but I've come to a decision that I just don't need these.

I also want to re-iterate that I do have rear tires for these 285/30/18 bridgestone SO2 with 95% tread life left.

These are awesome looking wheels. I got the same wheels but only 9.5s in the back, those 10.5s are rare

HRE are pretty poor quality. They are now banned from some Viper track events due to alot of failures.
