ADVAN wheels *PICS*

Well, here are some PICS of my partiality new wheels. They were on an 350z for about a month only, two of four rims have some small fine scratches and the tires are brand new. I know many of you guys don't favor the chrome look but I really wanted something between luxury and sporty. These things are a lot lighter in weight than they look. Whats your opinions or criticism. Now just have to decide on springs...

More ADVAN PICS

Here is another PIC of the scratch (funny how it's on the spoke and not the edges of the rim, like curb scratches), the last owner says it's from shipping? Regardless, rims are bound to get scratched sooner or later.

Wat are you waiting for, so slap them on your car already. As for the scratches, they look to me that they can be taken out without rechroming them.

My plan is try to find a place here in Tampa/St. Pete that might be able to buff out the scratches before installing them on the G. Does anyone know where I could go for this?

very nice. Advan's are extremely high quality shoes (higher than Volks). my friend used to have those in 20's on his '03 coupe 2 years ago. they're lighter than they look too. sometimes Labia aint always a good thing. cleaning them are a lot easier than Labia styled wheels.

post pics ASAP! tia!

I'm not a big fan of the plain jane five spokers, but that's just me. Post more pics when they are installed.

I was planning to put them on this weekend for an trial period before they went back to the shop to remove some scratches but, there's an HURRICANE outside right now. I'll have some PICS before this weekend.
