Japan Bound For Rims.

K, my very good friend is going to japan in april and i asked if he could do me a big favor and grab rims for me. sure enough, he said yes.

but the thing is, he'll have to ship it from japan to hawaii.

i don't live there so i don't know shipping but i'm pretty sure it'll be expensive.

so, is it really cheaper to buy it straight from japan and ship it here or going through an online shop or local shop cheaper?

Okay, my next question.

which rim should i get?

i was thinking the volks re30 in white or that polish silver color.

what would you guys go for if you could go japan and buy rims?

Use the EMS service their!! Thats the only one I use to get my parts.. They are super fast coming from Japan to hawaii though it'll cost you but they are super reliable!! SERIOUSLY they are!!

Speaking for rims wise.. I would go for something no one has!! Like a set of white volk wheels that are discountinued but are found at the UP garage in Kawasaki!!

it's usually cheaper to get them over here unless you're getting something custom/special ordered.
