Nearly half a century of production has seen involvement from a number of manufacturing parties (Kobe Steel and Campagnolo are two) as well as various casting details and markings that vary not only with production date but size as well.  The "Hayashi Racing" name however can be found on all of them, cast into one of four locations (front or back of the spoke, on the hub pad, or along the outer face of the rim flange). From the late seventies to modern-day, multiple companies have cloned the design.  Potential buyers should be aware... but in general authentic Streets are not a challenge to find. With such great history behind it, and vast availability, we could suggest that Kyusha owners combined have owned a more sets of Streets than any other wheel.  That idea alone, makes the Hayashi Racing Street one of the greatest JWL wheels of all time.]]> http://www.hayashiracing.com.

While the 4 Spoke is the more well known, and inspired a whole whack of clones, the 5 Spoke version is an equally attractive wheel that came in some very aggressive sizes.  This lends to some very awesome and deep slanted lips. Like the 4 Spoke, slightly different variations of the 5 Spoke exist, although for the most part, the identifiable differences are only the wheel back and manufacturing related markings.  At least three different variations exist. A three-piece (Spinning) version of the wheel was released late in 1978, and is likely the more rare find today.  However, the casted version often demands higher prices in used markets today with a cleaner, deeper look...  especially in ultra-large negative offset sizes!  ]]> 4 Spoke (4 hole PCD) and 5 Spoke (5H) versions.
