]]> 1069 My Work Here Is… https://kyushashoes.com/my-work-here-is/ Wed, 31 Jul 2013 03:30:13 +0000 http://kyushashoes.com/?p=216 jawa-35th-history

In celebration of its 35th anniversary, JAWA (Japanese Alloy Wheel Association) released a very limited edition book detailing the history of the wheel, and the Japanese Alloy Wheel.  As the standard setter for alloy wheels in Japan, JAWA has tested and stamped practically every wheel ever produced in Japan.  This book also suggests that they’ve kept a damn good record of everything that has come through their doors.  The final pages of it appear to be a catalog of every wheel ever produced!

In other words, life has lost all meaning.  Ha!

But while the book appears to have been for sale at one point, it is currently sold out.  A phone conversation with JAWA also indicated that there are no plans to print more copies.  They have however, put a PDF version of the book online for all want to see… minus the good part that we all want to see.  That PDF is HERE.

Thanks to JCP for sharing on Work Wheels Japan Facebook page.

Most of you who are regular visitors come specifically for the wheels. Google analytics actually blew me away when I looked last month and discovered this site is getting more views than ever before, most of you straight to the Kyusha Shoes page. The wheel database is growing. If you can read Japanese, you understand I’m past 300 now. Someday it will be over 1000. I hacked together a 1900×1200 desktop background… it makes things confusing as hell though when your desktop is already covered in thumbnails of wheels!
