Hi lads, before I start I would like to say these wheels are NOT for sale so no pm's please. This is not a for sale add!

Ok I have recently got some alloys and I'm just wondering if anyone can tell me what there worth?

There called keichii tsuchiya wheels (made by the famous Japanese racer) they are 15x6.5 I think and are et45? They weigh 3.8kg each.

Any help will be much appreciated
Thanks :D
 
can you put up some better pics of the markings, inside and out mate?

They might be badged up with Keiichi Tsuchiya's name but they will be made by someone else, SSR/Wedsport/Rays or someone. I dont think Kei Office (his old parts company) made wheels, these wheels pre-date the Kei Office stuff I believe.

what about the inside of the hub mounting face? this should have something on at least.

The sticker on the inside rim is just a standard JAWA type approval thing - they all have this. just evidence of the manufacturing process being authenticated, like the german TUV standard.

I've not seen this style before but as shown on the sticker, they are 'designed by' KT, so will be manufactured by someone else. Just evidence of something he put his name to etc.

If you can get a snap of the inside hub mounting faces then we should be able to confirm the sizes etc. Price wise I cant say as i've not seen these before, but there are other KT signed wheels from Modena etc which go for around £150-300 depending on condition.

Considering they look like good quality, straight and light wheels, thats probably where you should be aiming them (maybe £200 without tyres?) and see how you get on. They might not be particularly desirable as they arent a known model/sought after design but of course there is always an appreciation for good quality jap wheels.

Better than the usual Rota **** at the end of the day.

Get some additional pics and we'll see what we can identify
 
Lol I've done well then, been offered £400 from 3 people on another forum :p I'm keeping them anyway just wanted to know the value really! I know they retail for $1200 in America. You can't even get **** wheels for £150 these days lol come on people.
