I've got starlet mags on mine from a RWD starlet. You just need toyota wheel nuts with '2 washers'(important!!) which you can get at your local tyre shop or you may even be able to get them with the wheels :D If you've got an sk410 with drum brakes at front then you only need 1 washer on the fronts.

There 13inch and they lowering the revs and enable you to change later without ringing the engines neck out. The speedo probably reads a bit slow I think.
