ARE JDM by American Racing.  I just tried a ARE search, and this is what I found.


I had a set of gold ones on my 1985 IROC-Z...

A guy up here is selling a set of 15''s. $250 bucks, $350 with the Cooper Cobras (295/60). It's very tempting but I don't know if I could tuck those monsters under the rear fenders.

I had some 16" Enkei's that looked like that. Black 4-lug.


Enkeis are a bit different looking around the lugs,

I have a set of those in White, on my '83...  LOVE the looks of them...  Classy and stylish, and they suit the four eyed cars perfectly IMO.

Quarters, shouldnt be an issue. Fenders, yes. You will rub the strut or the fender or both.

Its better to bring up an old thread then create a new one, most of the time anyway.

Sorry I meant to type quarters. And I want them in the rear not in the front, struts in the front, shocks in the rear right? I think they're 50s, instead of 60's.

No quad shocks? Those will most likely get in the way. Ride height, wheel offset and all that will really decide if it rubs or not.

Nope no quads. They sold though, I think I'm gonna wait for a nice set of Ponys.
