Apart from being groundscrapingly low this shakotan Yonmeri Skyline has it all: Techno Shadow rims, Cherry X1-R tail lights, 70s racing mirrors and, of course, a sharknose!

It has been a long time since we had a poll on Sunday. So here is a fresh new poll: do you prefer Hart Racing or Techno Shadow rims?
To freshen up your memory, here are two examples of both wheel designs:

Versus
Deep dish Techno Shadow rims on Bluebird-U
A small change to the deep dish and stretched concepts: how low is your ride? In other words: a regular that features shakotan cars.
In this kick-off a Toyota Crown MS80 lowered so much that these two guys go down on their knees to check it out:
How low is your ride?
Note that the Crown is sitting on a pair of five-spoke Techno Shadows. Uber rare!

I always liked the Techno Shadow design, especially if the rim is as deep as these ones:

I found this set of 14 inch rims (two 13J wide and two 11J wide) on Auctions Yahoo.
The seller mentions Kenmeri and Laurel, so you don’t have to guess long what cars these rims would suit best!

They are not cheap though: the current bid is already at 800,000 yen (9500 us dollars) and the buy me now price is 1,000,000 yen (12,000 us dollars) and for that hefty sum of money you can probably buy a whole lot of C130 Laurels to fit them on. 😉

Even if the price may sound steep: these rims are not being made anymore and finding a full matching set is like winning the price in a lottery. Perhaps you will need to win that price too to be able to buy these babies. 😉

Techno Shadows always look great on kyusha styled cars, especially if they are deep dish rims like these ones:

I have no idea what size, width and offset these rims are, but they are surely not as deep as previously posted Techno Shadows…
This is how well they look on a Nissan Bluebird-U (aka 610):
