what wheels are these?
i just just bought them this morning… the guy at the shop said they were made for auto-X/drag… they’re made in japan (stamped in the back “made in japan”)… they’re pretty light, and in mint condition, wasnt ran on because brake calliper was too large for the wheel…
they’re 15’s
two colors, two wheels red, two wheels blue
blue wheels have offset 45
red wheels have offset 35

in the second pic… it says “JIL” but then again it looks like “JWL” put together… back of J, front of W, front of L…

i dont have a charger, so i cant take pics of anything else at the moment…

there are some other writting on the wheels.
it says “VIA” near the other JIL/JWL writting…

anyone know what they are? and also if i need to roll my fenders for the 45 offset…
plan to run the 45’s in the rear, and the 35’s up front…

they were sitting in this carshop i go to all the time for almost 2 years or so now…

i hope ur car is red too. i got 17s for 200. :smiley:

4

my car is black… flat black… satin black when i clean it with a certain liquid…

5

red and blue would look funny…
on a black car too.

imo.

damn kev those look cool, defintly leave em the colors they are, sucks that you can’t put red on one side and blue on the other. that would be pimp. i dont know what they are but put up a post over on honda-tech, im sure you’ll fine the answer there, if not ill post them over there.
as for the 45 offset in the rear you will be fine and not have to roll your fender, what size tire you gonna run on those? oh and are they 15x7"???

Those wheels look like old Sparco NS2 Vipers!

I think they would look sweet on a black car. Don’t paint them :up:

:shrug:

i’ll post it at h-t.com

but yea… update… they weight in at 16/17 lbs per wheel w/o tire…

im thinking that’s pretty good…

11

my moms acura 3.2 cl wheels have that exact same jwl or whatever that stamp is on them… odd
=steve=

12

weird… yea… i think i’ve seen them around on other wheels too…

isnt 16 lb wheels pretty good? if seeing as drag rims weigh at about 8 lb for one of the lightest… 16 i think is pretty good…

13

16 is kinda heavy for a 15" wheel, kev are they 15x7 or 15x6.5??

14

from edge of lip to edge of lip… it’s 7.5

im not sure how to measure width… am i doing it right?

i have a tape measure… and with the beginning griped onto one side, the end reads 7.5 inches…

15

what is that? it reads 7.5 from tip to tip…

16

inside of rim to inside of rim measures 6.5"

17

at 16#, those wheels are heavier than my 17’s

18

ooo… :frowning:

whatever… good deal anyways… hehe
:slight_smile:

I think they are Sparco’s. I’m not sure which model though. Those are good rims and there rare especially because they don’t make them any more. And dude trust me they will not look good unless you paint them one color all around. The red would look better than the blue

hey guys would a 16’ rim with 40 offset fit a teg?
