Default Help finding Carlsson 1/6 EVO! Want to buy

Hello all,

I'm new to this forum. I am looking for Carlsson 1/6 EVO in a 18" or 19" with the Japanese bolt pattern 5 x 114.3, all the wheels i find in 1/6 evo's are only for Mercedes. I know they have them for Japanese cars cause there are many Lexus' and Acura's sporting these rims. Can someone please help me if you know where I can purchase these rims. Please supply me with a contact number.

If you happen to have these wheels for sale, i'm open to checking out used rims if they are in good condition.

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks everyone!

Thank you IS_250... I tried calling today(Sat)... They are closed... but I'm going to try to call early Sunday... I really appreciate any help... I'll post in here if they have the rims available...

If anyone knows of any places.. let me know... There aren't too many places to go for rims here in Chicago... Probably cause were rated the worst roads in america... It's pothole city... if I do get rims, I'm going to have to be careful not to bend them...

You may want to consider going with something a little stronger than the CARLSSON then as they are not forged. Not that a forged wheel can not be bent but its alot stronger than a cast one.

Here is a pic of a car with a forged dish face wheel (AUTO-COUTURE MAGNIFIQUE)
