Need help finding the craziest most ludicrously deep dished rims out there

Yep, like the topic says, help me find some crazy ass deep dish rims. Post suggestions here, preferable pics. Need to be 17/18 inch in size, preferably chrome.

It's for a drifter project I have in mind Either a 180SX/S13 or S15..or maybe something else

Also, I need some help finding Japanese tuning and gauge decals, anyone know of a place?

You can always add a plastic ring around them to get a deeper dish, and a wider wheel... But good luck finding tires...

Then, there's always this...

Lightbulb Work Euroline...

I have a couple of sets of those! Here's a pic from my upcoming VIP Gloria... I added black paint to the centers for a distinctive appearance.

Jay: Those are sweet, I've got the Andrews on my Evo already, but daggerlee's silvia rocks!! THOSE are the types of wheels I want!! Must find out what they are

Antonio: Those rock too, but they're a bit big. Like what, 20 inches? I'm looking for ones that are 17/18.

Thanks for the help fellas.

Any other suggestions?

You mean the wide bodied S13 that Daggerlee built awhile back? I'm 99% positive they were the box items, and I am also 99% positive taht kit isn't 'common'.
Deepest wheels I know off are Funnycar items( ) but I don't think they are the type you are looking for, are they? Think they are too small anyway, just a suggestion though. Only hardcore deepdish rims I know of, sorry.
I think the rims Antonio showed would look great on an S14 drifter! So what you going to do?

*edit* Murco posted some Autometer gauge faces awhile ago, monster tacho/oil/water/volt etc etc white and black.

my suggestion for a really deep rim would be to buy two sets of fujimis wide wire wheel sets.. the rears are super wide.. the wheel come in three pieces.. use just the dish part of the wheel and mate it to the design of your choice.. also these wheels are 17inch.. check out ebay there is always auctions on them for cheap..
