Yes.

Tyres are just about worth more than the wheels. Fine choice.

Aw come on you must have a better photo of the car with the wheels on it, that's not showing us much but they look to sit nicely.

Never seen a set in NZ myself, but they're advertised on TM so no doubt we will be shortly. Thank christ you didn't put pink ones on it, would look so rank against the cream your car is.

I'll have to admit, Rota make some of the more faithful looking replicas out there.

They will be strong enough.

Even though they are rip offs they still have to meet safety standards.

Hard out, they are soo super expensive though. Basically impossible to just go and buy a set of old ones.

Hayashi are remaking them though for a cool $8000 a set.

Original cherry blossoms are pretty much the holy grail of the old jap wheels. So pretty.
