Cool Killer Deal of the week! Epsilons!!!!!

Just got through picking up 4 Epsilon 15x8.5 and 15x10 wheels tonight.
.....5 lug.....!!!!
The seller called them "Southern Way" brand, this was because he saw the "SW" on the back of the hub. Matched them up to mine and they are Eps's.
Fits the TII wheel hub perfect, now I can keep my sweet Epsilons and have my TII big brake conversion at the same time.
I will have the centers replated and then moved over to my wheels.
Life is really good.
The best part....

$100 for all 4 wheels with rubber.

wow unbeliveable, are you sure you did not forget a zero in your post. thats a great find. thats about $40 less than a new rim shell for a whole set. btw southern ways was the manufacture of epsilons. back when ... some people would try to get them from japan to cut out the us rep in california, they came in southern ways boxes. the us company bought the parts from them then put them together here. southern ways wheels rim shells were very soft and bent easy. the us company changed to use rim shells from hayshi then made their own shells to cut cost. congrats great deal

do you already have a car lined up for the 4/110 wheels ?

I always loved those on yourcar before and thought they would look good on a red one also

let me know when you have the 5 lug swap done and have no use for the 4 lug'rs

as for the wheel that is messed up, I might have a replacement piece. I have a pair of those in a 15x7 or so, and it was a 4x108 pattern. If you want them, PM me or email me at n1sh1@yahoo.com, so we can find out if this can be used. I'm in SoCal, if you're nearby and you wanna check them out. The rear portion on the wheel and the center part is damaged on one, but the 1 is good. I'd rather see somebody make good use of it than get $40 from the aluminum recycle yard.

I always thought it was Southern Ways, a Japanese wheel company from back in the early 80s, which they can be the same manufacturer as the Epsilons. Good find, bro!
