How deep is your dish?
At first I had trouble identifying the deep dish rims on this Skyline KGC10, however I recognized the car as the one I posted as wallpaper some time ago where it reveals that they are actually SSR Mk. III rims!

From this perspective you can already guess the rims up front are beyond 7J, rather into the 8J or 9J range!
On the rear they are a bit wider:

But not too much. My best guess is around 9J or 10J.

Okay, so now you got three different sets of deep dish rims and you only got one car to mount them on… What to do with the other two sets?
Things you can do with your deep dish rims
Well, for instance you can turn your 13J Techno Shadows into a coffee table!

Or you can turn your SSR Mk III into a nice barstool!
For the people who paid attention: the Techno Shadow rims were posted before in this deep dish posting and the 11J SSR Mk III in the picture of the Techno Shadow table were posted here.

For the people too lazy to create their own RC zokushas Aoshima created two sharknose Skyline RC cars: a sharknosed C110 and a sharknosed C210, both available in two colors.
This is what the C210 looks like:

I must say I was impressed by the detail in this RC car: the rims are deep dish SSR Mk IIIs (on the C110 deep dish RS Watanabes can be found!), the headlights are nicely covered behind the sharknose, the lip is in square zokusha style and the rear spoiler has its lines continue in the bodywork! Nice! 🙂
Found through Japanese Nostalgic Car blog. The

How stretched is your tire?
Okay, there are bead blasters to do the job, but doing it with brake cleaner is always a much nicer way to do it. At least for the videos that is… 😀
86jnosakuretu48te tried to follow ae86lan’s instruction video but failed the first two attempts. But he surely made a lot of flames! 😀
So, you may ask yourself why ignite the brake cleaner with a lighter when you could have done it in a much safer way:
First comment popping up in my head is:
I’m the self-inflicted, punk detonator.
Yeah, I’m the one invented, twisted animator.
I’m a firestarter, twisted firestarter,
you’re the firestarter, twisted firestarter.
