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!

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!

by banpei with no comments yetI knew you could widen steel rims by cutting the bead and welding sheetmetal in between. With this method the rims will always be a bit weaker than before and really wide rims are not advisable to make this way. So how about using a butane gas cylinder to widen a 14 inch 5J steel rim to 13J?
Who said SSR Mk Is are the best looking rims? These deep dish steelies on this Laurel C130 look definitely just as awesome!

I found these widened 14 inch 5J steelies on Auctions Yahoo when I was searching for Nissan Cedric 330s. The original used to be 5J but these babies certainly are somewhere in the 9J or even 10J range!
Widened 14 inch 5J Topy steel rims
These steelies are suitable for most 5 lugnut JDM tin.
The owner claims they are made by Topy:
Widened 14 inch 5J Topy steel rims
I never heard of that manufacturer before but from what I understand they manufacture most of the OEM steel wheels used by Japanese car manufacturers. They got a buy me now price of $2100, so they are definitely NOT a steal. 😉
