Rare JDM 16" Blitz Type01 Split Rims - MR2 Offsets + Staggered

Post by Ste2 »

16" Blitz Type 01

7J ET35 Front
8J ET38 Rear

These are definitely in need of some love - there is some kerb rash, lip damage + the existing finish is peeling on most, one has had a part rub down...

Given the right treatment they can look awesome and there cannot be too many around at 16" w/ MR2 PCD and offsets, which is why I was chuffed to have picked them up! I had been looking into getting them fully refurbished (polished lip and grey centers) but ultimately changed tack and since bought some 6 spoke Advans off here and cant afford to keep both

I have all 4 center caps with these, one of them is not in great shape (bodged repair) the others are better, but not great. Lots of pictures here as I dont want to be that guy who misrepresents and gives bad karma!! First few pics are of the actual wheels as sitting in my garage right now, the next few are pics of other Blitz Type01 I gleaned from the web

If anyone can do it you can :clap:

Will have to get rid of them soon as they are taking up too much space! I have some '16 advan AVS 6 that used to belong to you i believe.

Current plan is to have them painted in audi titanium L8AU and wrap them in R888's or yoko A048 :thumleft:

Hmmmmmm.... Send them my way...

I could try split these... Do a nice semi chrome powder finish to the outers and a colour of your choice to the centers. Then 're advertise.... It's a more cost effective way to refurb without having to rely on the 'the right buyer'

^ very interesting! I've been very tempted by these wheels but would ideally want them with polished lip and black inners, didn't realise they were welded. Anyway, will watch with interest.

you're looking at about £300 for a powdercoat refurb. I have in stock a nice chrome silver. Bolts will be cleaned as well.

This cost includes the work ill be putting into cutting these open... No promises on the outcome but would seem simple enough but time consuming. I'm willing to give it a go for the buyer. The seller can then send these wheels straight to me to carry out work almost immediately.

Not 'welded' to my knowledge - but in the past they have been painted without being split so that will make them a little more difficult to take apart...

Hi Ste2,

I am probably too late in posting you but I wanted to know if the alloys were still available to buy? if not, it's a shame as I would have liked to have had them for my MR2.

Thanks,

Selina :)
