Most of the times size does matter: this MS125 would never have looked impressive without its super wide wheels:
Bosozoku style Toyota Crown MS125
10J up front and 12J at the rear!
This is how much wider these wheels are than the original body allows:
Deep dish 12J wide SSR Mk. 1 on a Toyota Crown MS125
Now compare that to the original rims lying in front of that 12J wide wheel!

If you wonder if there are specialized shops for deep dish wheels, well here is one: Wide Wheel Co. Kamagaya
Wide Wheel dot Com?
They are specialized in widening wheels (from 5J to 10J!) and repairing aluminium wheels
And this is how sexy they make such 10J wheels look with a Toyo Proxes R888 tire:
Wide Wheel dot Com?
Damn sexy!
You can find them here.
by banpei with no comments yetI found this great deep dish lip polishing guide on Coupe Kiwi (through R I V E R S I D E):
Deep dish polishing guide
It starts with removing old paint/laquer with P40 paper and touches all the topics up to the 2000 grit wet paper!
These rims may not have deep dish, but surely the tiniest SSR Mk IIs I’ve ever seen: they are 10 inch in diameter and 4.5J wide!
Tiniest SSR Mk II: 10 inch 4.5J!
From the pictures they appear to be in proportion, only the lugnut-hole size hints that they are small… Knowing their dimensions they surely are an odd pair!
Tiniest SSR Mk II: 10 inch 4.5J!
The PCD is 110 and their offset is ET +2. Sounds like a good fit for some kei car!
I found them in an Auction for only 9800 yen ($112!) so definitely a bargain!

It is hard to come up with something deeper than last weeks LPG Bombe rims, but these 11J deep steel rims come quite close in width:
Deep dish 14 inch 11J steel rims with Dunlop CR88
It may not be as extremely deep as the LPG Bombes, but these rims still have a quite deep dish!
What is more surprising is that they also are quite centered!
Deep dish 14 inch 11J steel rims with Dunlop CR88
According to the seller the dish is 112mm deep, so that would be an ET value of -28.
The Dunlop CR88 tires look excellent on these rims, but the seller could have inflated them a bit more for the pictures:

Nevertheless these 245/575 sized tires are awesome!
