How low can you go?
This Kyusha Kai Toyota Mark II Grande has been lowered a bit:
The, probably, 13 inch SSR Mk III rims with stretched tires makes it possible to go even lower than with its original 15 inch wheels.
Just fast forward this video to 1:19 and see how much a Mark II Grande can be lowered! (more…)

This is definitely one of the best bosozoku styled Cresta’s ever: sure it’s got a sharknose, an oil cooler, front air dam with lip, extended fenders, big takeyari exhaust, deep dished SSR Mk IIIs and a ducktail spoiler. But what is the key element I did not name here? (more…)

Earlier this week I got an email from Okumi RT that he got a new set of rims for his Fairlady S30:
Okumis SSR MK III 14 inch 10J/12J wide
A set of SSR Mk III rims. They are 14 inch in diameter and 10J and 12J wide.
This is how much wider they are as his current SSR Mk IIs:
Okumis SSR MK III 14 inch 10J/12J wide
As a reference: his previous setup was 9J/10J, so this is going to be a lot wider at the rear!
And this is how they would look en profile:
Okumis SSR MK III 14 inch 10J/12J wide
Beautiful! Can’t wait till he finally mounts them on the S30!
Actually there is a reason why he hasn’t mounted them yet: he is not able to source the correct tires for them yet, so can anyone help him out with finding 245-255/50/14 tires in Thailand?

Another semi deep dish video from JapanDyno: a set of 14 inch SSR Mk III wheels:
How deep is your dish?
These SSR MK IIIs are only 7.5J deep, but they are lined up perfectly with the bodywork of this Skyline Japan C211:
