Am I gonna have to cancel my month old T66 order with Japan Parts? If so please pm me so I can order through you instead. I'd rather have the $700 shipping/foreign transaction fee go into your pockets instead.

I'm looking at you CSG

No kidding these were TOP my list above Volks and Advans due to specs, rarity and even abit cheaper to. But alas the 4-5 month wait through japan parts with their crap attitude and notification system I couldn't stomach.

part own fault but didn't know for sure last fall and didn't have cash either up front for em to be on that long of a list. I'm blown away no one in ol' Merica is carrying them still..

TWS is very picky with who they want to deal with. They parted ways with a US distributor in the past because they didn't want to deal with them anymore.

FWIW the RPF1 in that size is 16.05 lb.

CSG does have these forsale on their website now. Unfortunately they are more expensive than ordering them from Japanparts for the larger size wheels like 18x9.5.

They are like 15.9lbs (7.17kg) in 18x9.5 which is pretty insane and I like the looks of them. However the 18x9.5 +38 RPF1 is only 17.6lbs and readily available everywhere for like $1400 shipped... Unless you really can't stand the way RPF1s look I can't see paying an extra $2600 for 6lbs of weight.

We are the contact for TWS Forged parts in North America. Contact us for TWS parts. The prices listed are retail, but that doesn't mean we aren't offering something special for the FT86 community.

16x7" 10.63lbs is the only choice

Boxer486 · 04-10-2014, 04:54 PM

David, I think you guys need to put up a more accurate picture of the 16's if possible. People might not be too happy once they actually see them compared to the picture on your site lol.

Here's a pic of the 16s if it's okay to use. Maybe just link it as another view to the selection page after the jump or something. Just a thought.
