Hello,

As an Authorized VeilSide Dealer we are happy to announce that VeilSide USA will shortly be manufacturing new lines of VeilSide wheels IN THE U.S.!

Please feel free to PM us for more information. We will update everyone as well, when more information is made available to us.

P.S. -- For everyone that will be viewing the new Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift film, and are not familiar with the styling of VeilSide's original wheels, they can be seen on:

Evolution V
Drift King 350z
Fortune Wide Body RX-7 FD.

Very interesting news. I remember reading that all the wheels were now discontinued and they no longer list them on the Veilside USA website.

I look forward to seeing what styles are gong to be sold.

Hello,

Yesh, they are the Andrew Evolution 5's. Those wheels are on the FD and Z33 in the film. They were among the original line of VeilSide wheels before they were discontinued. This wheel (Andrew Evolution 5) will not be available in the new, yet to be released, line of VeilSide wheels.
