The hardcore Kyusha Shoe community was abuzz last weekend when one of the more interesting auction finds that I’ve ever come across appeared. It was a set of un-used and still in boxes Volk C1‘s complete with tags and instruction manuals, and one of the two aero options for the wheels, […]

Since starting this website, the wheel info coming in has been overwhelming. I’ve learned so much. And I’ve also learned a lot about how wheel enthusiasts around the world are buying and exporting wheels out of Japan. I am lucky enough to have family in Japan that has helped me lots […]

Buying Wheels with Jauce

8 Oct, 2016 in Shopping tagged dollar / jauce / messy eater / yahoo / yen by Q Osborne

A couple of years ago while searching through craigslist for the usual tags I came across an ad marked something along the lines of “JDM Wheel Pair”. Thinking that I’d had some luck flipping pairs of wheels in the past I clicked that ad and looked a bit a further […]

Wheel Mystery Solved

19 Feb, 2016 in Rare Finds tagged adscan / eighties / guestpost / motorfan / seventies / targetracing / yahoo by Robbie Jordan

For years, I was sure that I would only need one set of old school Japanese wheels to stand out from the crowd and be satisfied with the period-correct look of my car. After purchasing my first set of kyusha wheels, SSR MK-3’s, I almost immediately knew I wanted another […]

Four hole Star Sharks are relatively common. These five holes are on Yahoo Auctions this week. If I’ve seen these before, I certainly can’t remember. Seems like 15″ would be a more useful five bolt diameter though.

Five/5 Points

I’m getting lots of emails recently about buying things off Yahoo Auctions Japan, and I don’t have the ability to help you all individually. I can’t advise you much better on the condition of a particular item based on the written description much better than Babelfish, nor can I […]

Yahoo Search Aid

The wheel search isn’t going so well. So much so, that I’ve almost decided to go with boring Enkei RP01’s again. They’re good light, strong, affordable wheels but it’s pretty hard to love any car that sits on an ordinary five spoke. It’s also pretty hard to find an upgrade […]

Buying goodies from Japan has been an expensive venture for the past few years. But look at our dollar climb now. The Canadian dollar is getting close to even with the Japanese yen, and I for one, am going berserk on Yahoo. In fact, I’m sending my wife and kids […]
