adey, it is a stock paint. The previous owner took really good care of the paint and I intend to keep it that way. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

Very nice. I got to see those rims in white with a blue lip yesturday. They are much nicer in person.
I'll cry if you put a kit on that, really...that is one of the nicest looking 300zx's I have ever seen. Can't wait to see it with the new suspension...

Am I the only person on this entire board that HATES black and gunmetal rims?
No offence, they are nice rims, but I personally hate the black color... from a distance it just looks like you have no rims at all, or put on winter beaters.
Once again, no offence, if you like them, thats all that matters.

Thanks guys. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> I got these Advans from a local wheel shop called "ALTA" They specialize in hard-to-find Japanese rims.(Magnesium Volks, Work, Manary sport....) The wheels are 17X8 and 17X9 and +32 +35 offset.
I had the silver Super Advans before but I decided to switch out with these because I really like the color of the wheels.
I understand that MOST people will not like the 3-spoke rims because they think it's ugly. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> hell, I said the same thing when I first saw athe Super Advans 2 years ago. I think alot of Zilvia.net members have a good taste in rims so I decided to post my pics here.
Anyway, thanks for all the kind words and I definetly post more pics when I get the Bomex front bumper in mid October.
BTW, don't ask me how much I paid for the rims- It brings back memories of me eating ramen for 8 months so I could buy the rims. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

Haha, thanks. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> It weird how some people can be so negative about my rims. For example I had this one guy saying "I hate 3 spoke rims, and I think the black rim look ugly too. You just mix them together, it's fgly" <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sigh.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':rolleyes:'>
Anyway, it's cool though- I don't really care about the haters.
Watch out for my next post when I get the bomex frontend with it. It's going to be nice. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
Again, lots of thanks to all you guys.

I used to hate 3 spoke rims, but then after a while I began to love them. I still prefer the typhoons over the Advans, but Advans look really nice. I would love to get some on a black car with a blue lip.
I would also love to see some typhoons with colored lips.
For those who say that black rims look ugly, I love black rims especially on black cars. It gives the car a really stealthy look. I don't really like black rims on cars other than black, unless they have a matching lip, then it has a cool effect when rolling.
Get some more shots of your car, with a little more light on those rims, can barely see the lip in the pics. Also another thing that would make yoru car look nice is color matching your calipers

Extremely Nice! You know, what people that aren't in the racing world don't know is, Those are actually a wonderful rim. I'm sure that they are very light and wide (as you can see from the $100 bill). Get the coilovers and you'll be fine. I don't think that you should put a kit on that car, It looks way to good without one. And to answer a couple of people's question, from a distance, you CAN tell there is a rim there. You can see the red lip.

Nice, I'm loving the black rims and the red accents to match the car. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>
I love black rims, but right now since I'm broke I'm stuck with painting my stockers.
