When he replies to my email, Ill post it up.


awesome thanks for the help! :D

You know that might be right, when I went to check the wheels out the guy told me they had to have the center bores grinded out a little for it to fit his daughters 96 civic. It was very minimal though. So that right there told me they more than likely weren't from a Honda.

hopefully he responds pretty soon.

- Wed Feb 12, 2014 8:47 pm #342573 they said theyre more than likely OE toyota wheels. Corolla or Echo are the models they mentioned. Also said best bet is to contact Toyota, maybe take em to a dealer and see if they can pinpoint what theyre from.

do they say Enkei on the inside barrel or anywhere?

• 14" dia
• +36mm offset
• 4x100
• center bore was originally smaller than the civics's 56.1mm
• by the style, I'm guessing they are from the 90's
• made in the USA


- not sure what the "12980 BEAT" stamp means. Thought maybe it was something to do with the Honda Beat but didn't find anything.

- Some cars that have a smaller 54.1 center bore are:
Mazda Miata, MX-3
Hyundai Accent, Excel
Kia Rio
Ford Fiesta
suzuki esteem
Toyota Corolla, MR2, Paseo, Yaris
