Great shots Chris!

I spoke to Bulletproof last week and they have confirmed the following:



The ever popular Nismo LM-GT4 wheel was discontinued by Nismo about a year or two ago. Since then, quite a few people have been on the hunt (including myself) for dead stock leftovers or sets of these iconic wheels used. Unfortunately, the options for new were dried-up and for used, few and far between.

However, we just received word yesterday that Rays Japan is offering the 18x9.5" +12 fitment, made famous back in 2005 by the R34 Z-Tune. These will only be offered in black.




Yes you have read it correctly, the LM's have been re-released in 18x9.5 +12 only!

I would expect to pay around that much shipped for them since they are producing a relatively low quantity.

Our standard offset LM's are not worth as much as the rarer +12's and even rarer +0's so go ahead and enjoy them

but by the sounds of it they are making the +12s, so those will surely be the most common and the others are no longer available making them more rare. funny things happen to the supply/demand curve when you cut the supply source

3 years? Man I can't believe it's been that long, I remember when you first started posting on here.

I guess it's been almost 3 years since my LM's showed up on my door step. I remember they were the Rays boxes with the Nismo logos, that was a good day lol.

August will already be a year for having mine. It seems like I was just in here trying to decide on 18" vs 19", etc. I get lots of compliments on the wheels too
