Default Has anyone heard of Lock Smice Rim Brand?

Hello,

Im hoping someone can help shed some light on this brand.

Apparently they are a JDM wheel. So finding much info over here in the states will be slim. But as long as you know all of the specs of wheels, they're fit just like any other wheel!

If either of these guys are still around, you may want to try to contact them by PM.

And fitment while important is certainly not the main issue with wheels, IMO, quality and durability are,

They're JDM, so they're automatically of superior quality.

I think this will answer your question... They are division of Kenstyle which is a well known aero parts brand in Japan and they do make Modellista Aero Parts for Toyota Japan and some special edition Scion Aero parts for Toyota North America... you'll notice they deal with RAYS and WEDs both top notch wheels manufacture.. http://www.kenstyleusa.com/kenstyle_company-profile.pdf

Thanks for all the info about these rims!!!! That PDF was really helpful.

Would any of youknow if the OEM lug nuts would fit on these types of rims or would I need different ones?
