Trouble is, people are starting to cotton on that old Japanese wheels are cool, and the prices are starting to rise accordingly :?
1988 KE70 Wagon - Slowly rusting
1990 NA6 MX-5 - because reasons
2018 Ranger - Because workcar
1997 FD3S RX-7 Type R - all brap, all the time
OMG so shiny!

not being in a rush is a good thing. keep an eye on trademe, like every week scan the wheels section using 114.3 as a search and keep an eye out for some nice oldschool rims. Its a waiting game, the longer you wait the more choices you get and the better deal you will spot

Not the easiest to find tridents in a 14 with 4 stud. They don't look like really small wheels when you get them on either, just put some 195/45s on and they look just nice.
