Cherry Blossoms

Does anyone know who makes these wheels? I like the original design by Hayashi but they only come in 14". Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

truthfully those don't look like real wheels... it just looks like someone CADed up and posted, idk if they did any strength analysis or anything. I mean I may be wrong but thats my 2 cents

Well I don't have a Z34 I'm actually going to get a GT-86 when it comes out and the factory wheels are 17" so that's why I'm looking for 17"... sorry for the misunderstanding... I wish I could fit a set of Hayashi Sakuras on it but they only come in 14" so I've been looking everywhere for other wheels that look like the Hayashis... so far no luck... Here's a pic of the Sakuras for reference:

guess I was wrong haha, anyways it makes sense why they're only available in 14's, with anything larger the design would definitely have to change to maintain rigidity and strength

13 inch steelies were standard for the lower models. Optional 13 inch alloys were available, I think. Top of the line models had 14s

Hey I get that most of you may not like them and I'm sorry if I'm bothering to much but I really just want something unique... One of my favorite cars of all time has to be the '74 Celica GT, a few of the ones I've seen have the Sakuras on and I love the way they look... I'm just trying to make my car look the way I want which is a little different and a little retro than most are used to... thanks anyway for the replies but I guess I'll have to find them some other way
