I took a quick look through some of the Japanese forums and no luck on any info for those wheels. Sorry. They look to be old JDm style and if refinished would be worth keeping IMO.

u guys like them? i was looking to get something larger, so i could fit a brake upgrade in the future, and also something more modern looking.....but i do get compliments on them. i guess they are kinda classic oldskool good looks lol........how do you mean refinished TWT00? they are in pretty good shape, a slight curb on one and a couple small nicks in the paint, but otherwise good condition.
i think they are 2 piece, i havent actually checked but its possible that they are 3pc.....

im shopping for new tires currently and wanted to go with falken azenis 205/50/15, found a good deal 300$ shipped for 4. but apparently a 225/50/15 tire can fit on a 7in wide rim, and mine are apparently that wide, measured 8 inches from lip to lip, so im wondering..........225 kumho's all around would be , grip almost as well as 205/50/15 azenis, and last longer than the azenis.
my car is also anorexic, i have everything gutted out, tar, a/c core, carpet/headliner, and hope to get it weighed asap to see how far one can go lightening a street driven 240sx.

mods-sorry for the longish and somewhate offtopic post, dont have time right now to go to multiple forums!

215/45/15 toyo T1-S's would rock IMO
http://www.ec-securehost.com/OnlineT...Toyo_T1-S.html

A little expensive, but they are some of the lightest tires out there! Or you can hold out for the new azenis coming out early next year

I love your wheels, I'm a big *old school style wheel* fan, and I would think you can sell your wheels for 500 minimum(maybe even more then 800 since these seem very rare, just a guess). No prob on the slightly OT/longish post, all good.

weight wise it would be nice to get a light tire, but im not concerned with that, mostly price and performance/longevity.
im thinking about kumho 711's, i can get 225/50/15 for 235$ shipped, after mounting itd prabably cost about 300$ total, and they would grip like crazy and get decent wear. ive owned 712s in the past and like them, they are decent tires. come summer, ill prabably spring for some falken azenis or the new azenis like u said, and perhaps some new rims too. of course if anybody is interested in them, make an offer i can't refuse and i wont argue....
