Do they come with a 30 foot tall Philips Screwdriver?

You can find those Impuls for 200 all day if you know someone in Japan. Hit up Upgarage as there's two sets on there at 200 and 150 for sets of them. Upgarage is huge chainstore all throughout Japan that sell new stuff and used stuff people bring in and sell. If only we had places like that here. 850 bucks....shakes head

Do you think they ship to the US?

So how does one go about "knowing someone in Japan?" Mmmmmmmsexy:

fixed.

My buddy was stationed in Okinawa but he came back to the US last week. I scored enough stuff off of him though. You'd be surprised how cheap wheels are. He was scoring SSR Type X's for 150-200 at the junkyards and flip them and sell them for 6-800 depending on size and color. But old wheels like those Hoshino's can be found at junkyards and whatnot. Shipping isn't all that bad if you know someone in the Military as it's the same as shippinng something from Los Angeles to where ever in the US. Before someone comes in and says if you live in LA it's free then right. No. lol. Usually like 20 per wheel. I know a few people over there but not as good as my friend who moved back. Now for if Upgarage ships to the US I'm not sure and want to say they don't. They charge for shipping stuff from store to store as alot of the nicer wheels were located on mainland and not Okinawa. It never hurts to email them and find out.

those look like alot of unsprung weight.

EGGZACHARY!

That Upgarage sounds like a fantastic idea but I'm still having a little issue with the 'translation.'

Wheel of the type, number of rich as well as the many tires available. From the rich inventory of your favorite wheels, tires KUDASAI choice. We look forward to coming.

I'd love to score some 14"ers for my $2008 car if I can figure out the website...
