Try Memory Fab in Union City, CA or PM Sean (MyBox) to see if he can get them.

I have those exact wheels on my xb, and I think they're great. Definitely unique. Although I only paid 700 for them from wheel choice.

I thnk these wheels were offered through DAMD.

Do a search on www.google.co.jp for "DAMD" and "Lover soul" and you'll find some links.

EDIT: Found a little more:

Don't buy these wheels they suck! I was kind of hoping I would never see them again except on my box.

700 each? Oh hell no! Wish I had that kind of scratch, but that was for the set. I did a lot of searching before I bought these about six months ago and didn't come up with much, but I'll give you any info I can.

The +25 offset fits great, very nearly flush with the front, the back of course could use a spacer. They're pretty heavy at about 22.5 lbs a piece if you're performance oriented. I was told they were a limited production wheel, produced by enkei japan for damd / loversoul. I have no idea if this is actually true. I have the original boxes and neither the boxes nor the wheels say enkei anywhere on them. I was also told they were out of production. There is an import stamp on the boxes that is dated with October 2000, so I would almost bank that they don't make them anymore. They came with a 4 page pamphlet that may provide more info, but it is entirely in japanese so I have no idea what is says.

FYI when I bought them, they were listed on ebay at least once with a "buy it now" of $700.00 and they did not sell. I ended up buying them directly from the seller a couple of weeks later.

If you need any additional pics or a scan of the pamphlet, just pm me.





My crappy digicam doesn't really do them justice IMO. That's with the Tein H-Tech drop, and 215-40 Falken Ziex 512's.

I always thougth how they look on a car, I have 4 sets of wheels, but no 17 so thoes were my options but the funny part is they were selling the first set for $599 + $90 shipping and now that they have sold couple of sets the price is $1100, now that is what I call good Business man
By the way, the car looks pretty cool, nice job !!
