2 New, most "Ugly" rims from Fujimi
guys, just rims updated again. 1999.co.jp have 2 new rims sets from Fujimi. One set is from Buddy Club 6 spokes P.1 Racing, another one is 15" steel wheel from MR-S. Both look VERY SUCK......DONT WASTE $$ ON THIS PIECE OF CRAB.

Typical Fujimi. Why they can do so well with some wheels, and blow it so bad on others is beyond me. They need to seriously quit making so many 16/17" rims, because all the 18's make them look terrible.
I do like the MRS steel wheels actually. They aren't supposed to be big. If you want big diameter steelies, get a Maisto 2000 Impala police car model, it comes with big steelies that look really good.

What are some of Fujimi's most well-executed wheels?

Those Yoko Model 7's are nice, but they're really smallish 17's/biggish 16's. I don't trust their sizes, so the new AVS model 5's I'm interested in but are they the correct size? If they are any smaller than the Aoshima rims they will be unacceptable to me. If anyone has the R33, check the diameter. They need to be at least .81" in diameter, any smaller will be a real shame.
Reality check-after measuring some new rims w/dial calipers: Yoko Model 7's-.74"-this is really a slightly large 16" rim in scale. Workmeister-.83"-really an 18" VeilSide MRS rims-18" BBS DTM/Aoshima-18" Studio 27 metal BBS-17", look like the Aoshima rims above Enkei RP-F1-16" Blitz Techno Speed-16" (Fujimi) Stock Civic/Integra R-16" Tamiya WRX STi-17" Fujimi WRX STi V. IV-15" Aoshima Falcon Aristo-18" Enkei ES Tarmac-15" Aoshima Auto Exe BBS (Miata kit)-17" Hoppin' Hydros-.87", 19" (24th), 20" (25th) Aoshima 19's-.88", 19/20" Pegasus rims-.80", 18/19" Fujimi disappoints w/the Model 7's, Enkei RP-F1's, Blitz, WRX, and the Civic/Integra (shouldn't they be 17 or 18?). Models all look better with plus sizes, not minus sizes. Aoshima is much better at getting the correct and best looking rim sizes.

The P1s don't look too bad.
And the steelies would work good on an old school junker...not an MR-S

i like the look of the p1's, just don't like the size. as for the steelies, are there any that look nice?
 they are never made to look nice, but i think those rims would be great for some projects.
