I know, I'm terrible.
Picked these up last night. Yeah, five of them. Hayashi Talons
Fitment is going to be a challenge, as they are 15x7.
We'll see how it goes -- stay tuned...

15 x 7 will fit if the offset is correct. Hope you got +10 or greater - if so you can make 15 x 7's work.

Looks to me like all you need is a really, really big phillips screwdriver.

They arrived.
Super deep lip looks awesome.
Rear openings don't quite fit the hub, will require a little "porting" in the back of the wheel. So I couldn't quite bolt one on. Extended studs will be needed too.
They are super aggressive with a little poke at least on the front (the one I tried). I'm going to sit with them for a few days and decide whether to keep them or not. I like the ones on the car better at the moment.

A piloted router is the best tool for porting the concentric hub hole.
