Are you sure those are Watanabe? I don’t see the stamp cast in the wheel, and I hadn’t heard of them before… but there’s a lot I don’t know! The only Watanabe R type wheel I know of looks like this

And the only multiple piece wheel I’ve seen is the RS-8, which those certainly arent.

Nice wheels nonetheless. Have any more pics?

oh really, I’ll remember that Paul 😢  
I’d be all over these if they were 16x8’s. Good luck with the sale, this is a fair price.
