Why OPUS

Three walls stand between you and that wheel.

The wheel you want is in Japan, you can't see its real condition, and normal cross-border buying gives you no way back. OPUS takes down all three.

OPUS sourcing a JDM wheel inside Japan, on the buyer's behalf close The distance
public Wall 1 · Distance

The wheel only exists in Japan. We're already here.

The set you want lives on Yahoo Auctions, Mercari, UP Garage and local dealers. Japan-only, Japanese-only, no overseas bidding. We read the listings, win the auction, then handle packing, customs and FedEx, quoted all-in DDP so there's no second bill at your door.

visibility Wall 2 · Information

Photos hide the truth. We put it on the table.

Listing photos never show the bad angle. Fake RAYS or BBS? Bent, cracked, or out of true (a real safety risk)? Curb rash, white corrosion, past repairs? We hold the actual wheel and document authenticity, structure and condition in a photo inspection report. The information gap, closed.

Customer reviewing the photo-documented inspection report before approving the shipment close The point of no return
front_hand Wall 3 · Trust

No more "pay, pray, find out too late."

Normal cross-border used buying is one-shot: you pay, it arrives, and only then do you learn the truth. We put inspection and your approval right before the irreversible step (shipping), so a blind gamble becomes a decision you make with your eyes open.

We're not really selling wheels. We're selling the chance to confirm before you commit.

Cross-border used buying is normally paying for something you can't see, with no way back. OPUS turns it into a decision you make after inspecting the actual item.

"When I bought my Evo, it had an aftermarket seat that only fit fully grown Japanese dudes (not me 😅). So I had to throw in some cheapo seats while searching for a replacement. It took me 7 months, but I finally found these guys. Their page looked like it had just started up, but they really came through! Shipping was super fast, and the parts were exactly as described."

Before OPUS, I sold JDM parts on eBay as real_jdm_wheels from 2022 to 2024. Same hands, same standards — the full track record is public.

Inspection

We don't just say we inspect. This is the inspection.

Every wheel that lands in Japan is checked by hand before it's offered. The video below is the actual inspection.

verified Authenticity

It's real, and we prove it.

We photograph the stampings (VOLK RACING, JWL, VIA 690KG, MADE IN JAPAN) and confirm the serial and logo match the genuine pattern. Proof it's not a fake.

straighten Structure & spec

The numbers are measured, not assumed.

Width, diameter, offset, PCD and hub bore confirmed by stamping or measurement, plus a dial-gauge runout reading for bends or warping, and a check for cracks and weld repairs.

grade Condition grade

Every flaw, graded by severity.

Face, rim lip, barrel and labels checked for curb rash, white corrosion and paint loss, rated by severity, with an overall grade from A (excellent) to D (replace).

Why OPUS?

Not all sources are equal.

Distance, information, trust — the same three walls, measured against every other way to buy from Japan. Only one clears all three.

Process

How it works.

No payment yet — inquiring just starts the conversation.

  1. 1
    Search Japan's wheels with the tool
    Use the JDM Search tool to look through real Japanese listings yourself, or just send us a model name, your car, or rough specs and we search for you. Inquiring is free and only starts the conversation.
    Open the wheel finder arrow_outward
  2. 2
    We confirm the details
    We read the seller's full listing, lock down PCD, quantity and tire status, and check the offset fits your car. You get a final all-in DDP price — no more "to confirm" tags.
  3. 3
    You decide
    If the price and fit look good, you pay a deposit to lock it in. The deposit is non-refundable — it equals our service fee (15% of the hammer price, min ¥20,000) and isn't returned even if you decide not to ship after the inspection. All payments go through PayPal.
  4. 4
    We buy and inspect
    We win the auction, get the wheels in hand, and run the full 3-point inspection. You get the report with photos.
    See a real sample report arrow_outward
  5. 5
    You give the final go
    Happy with the report? We ship DDP, duties and tax included. Not happy? We don't ship — the deposit isn't refunded, but the inspection already did its job: no surprises after delivery.
The deposit pays for the sourcing, the inspection and your right to walk away before it ships — that's what protects you from an expensive "not what I expected" once the box arrives.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What information do I need to provide? expand_more
Just a wheel name or your car model, and where you want it shipped. Budget and condition preference are optional but help us find the best match.
How fast will I get a response? expand_more
Within 24 hours. We search Japan's auction market and reply with available options and full DDP pricing.
What if you can't find what I'm looking for? expand_more
We'll add you to our watch list and notify you as soon as a matching set appears. Some rare specs take time — we'll keep searching.
What does it cost? expand_more
15% service fee on the product price (minimum ¥20,000), plus shipping, duties, tax, and the PayPal processing fee. Use the calculator above to see your total delivered price — everything is included.
What do you inspect? expand_more
Runout (dial gauge measurement), warping, curb damage, cracks, repair history, and paint condition. Results are sent as a photo-documented condition report.
What if I'm not satisfied? expand_more
There's no charge for the proposal and quote. Once you decide to proceed, you place a deposit (equal to our service fee, minimum ¥20,000) and we start sourcing, buying and inspecting. The deposit covers that work, so it isn't refunded if you later decide not to ship. You always see the full inspection report before anything ships, so you judge the actual condition before deciding. We never send a wheel you haven't approved.
How long does it take? expand_more
About 2 weeks total — roughly 1 week for sourcing and inspection, then about 1 week for shipping.
Can you find wheels not listed on Yahoo? expand_more
Yes. We source from UP Garage, Mercari, Croooober, and private dealers. Contact us with the model, size, and PCD.
What payment methods do you accept? expand_more
All payments are processed through PayPal. This keeps your money protected by PayPal Buyer Protection until your wheels arrive.
What if the wheels are damaged in shipping? expand_more
OPUS covers it. We're responsible until the package is in your hands.
