Where can I get these HKS Wheels??? I have to have them...pic inside

I wanted to get a pair of special order Volks, so $$$ is secondary. Then I came across this pic compliments od SuperStreet Magazine circa 1997.

I know the wheels are a little old school, but they have to be rare and DAMN...they are from HKS....'nuf said.

Anyone know anything???

some expensive taste there

I suggest you give Gruppe-S or Adam at Z1 a call and see if they can get you a quote on these wheels.

If you're going for exclusivity what about the Gold Advan RGII in GTR style. They'll look sick on a lowered EVO. Also the Gold Volk LE28 (talking about the one with a polished lip...can't remember if they're LE or CE). I don't think anyone in metro detroit has these wheels

I'd get the Advan or black le 28 if I had the dough


good luck!

Those wheels were made by TECNOMAGNESIO which HKS then just slapped an HKS center cap and called it their wheel. Its a magnesium wheel which in the 18x9.5 size weighed about 22 lbs.

I'm sure they've been discontinued a LONG time ago.

The wheel reminds me of the new GTO wheel...lol.

I'm pretty sure they only imported like 4-5 sets. I think Ethan Banks had some on his Supra.

jpimportz.org has them on their supra:
