Default Are these rims availabe in the U.S.?

Rims are called Prodrive GC-06D. Looks like they only have the correct offsets for the S2000 in 17's. Offsets are +48 and +54. Wondering if any sponsors here have any info, or can obtain info about these rims. For instance, weight, and cost. Thanks!




Click here for Prodrives website....

I'm pretty sure Prodrive only makes wheels for Subarus. If they have a wheel close to the proper offsets then only in 17s, I'd say that's as good as you're going to get out of them. Nice looking wheels but quite similar toa bunch of the differnt Volk models I've see and the do come in better offsets for larger sizes.

The sizes and offsets I listed is for the S2000 specifically. At least thats what their website indicates. I wonder how much these rims weigh? They seem to have a forged version, as well as a cast version.

Interesting....I guess I should have looked at the website before speaking

I saw an ad in the latest issue of Sport Compact Car for those rims and it specifically said something about Subaru fitments only so that's where I got that piece of info.

No idea about weights...they do look nice, especially the gunmetal ones

You could probably try asking www.takakaira.com

They carry Prodrive wheels.

I'm so down with these rims... AAARRRRGGGHGGHHHH

Great, now I've actually found a set of aftermarket 17"s that I actually like, and that have the correct offsets...

I've seen these in many Option mags, but always just thought of them as TE-37 knock-offs. I've seen them on R34s, and S15s, so they may not be just for subbies.
