Memory Fab, a used JDM wheel dealer in Northern California, had a set of Bridgestone DTM wheels that, other than the lettering, look exactly like these (cap and pin, included). I was thinking of buying them (they were for sale for the longest time) but when I decided to pull the trigger, they were gone. :( I forgot where I saw it, but I actually read a post by the buyer asking a few questions about the wheels; double burn...

Are these your wheels? The reason I hesitated buying is because I can't tell if the face sticks out past the lip. Does it? If not, triple burn...

The reason I would paint it all white is because I don't like TOO much bling. I even painted the polished stainless steel muffler body of the Tanabe Medallion Touring flat black, although I did leve the tip shiny.
