I saw JDM black 16" rims for sale somewhere....

He said they'd be good for big brake conversions or sumthin....

They look the same size offset, caliper clearance to me. Does anymone know for sure if they are same or different?

I think is has something to do with where the spokes meet the lip. If u ask me ive seen both sets down here as standard. The later 03' models having the full lip.

The black wheels were bought from Autobacs Tokyo a few years back as a factory option. They retain the same factory offset. Difference is color and tyres.

While the 6 spoke JDM wheels are BBS manufactured and forged aluminum. Significantly lighter and more balanced than the 5 spoke Enkei manufactured wheels.

those 6 spoke BBS rims are what you want, i think they are called the modulo rims or something and they were an option on jdm s2ks.
