hell ya. i love those rims but you know what is better. these...

I'd prefer the gunmetal on a silver car. I'm not a real fan of that few a spokes on a wheel but that's just personal opinion (and so is my color preference for that matter).

first off, Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to our Club. There are TWO BIG fridge'S in the corner with anything you can think of in them...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. (stash)

make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!! (stash)

the bad news is.....they aren't going to fit on a P5......seeing as how they are four lug....and your P5 is a 5 lug configuration...and I don't see either of those wheels made in a 5 lug pattern.

 

[PBH]

Keep in mind that P5's are 5 bolt rims. The two rims featured in the initial posting are both 4 bolt.

Also, I LOVE the black & red rim on the second posting!!! What kind are they? Could that be bought in other colours (like yellow & black) or would you have to get it painted yourself? Now that I think of it, it might make more sense to paint it in case the colour mis-matches & clashes with the car.

 

[Pirana]

I think they only come in 4 lug pattern.

PBH: Those are Super Advan wheels .. oldschool. They should be available in colours other than black and red.

There are a few places that will import them from Japan but I don't think they have official distribution in North America?

Advan has a new version called Super Advan Generation II

heheh...i saw those red/black rims on GT3

 

[jsgolfer]

yes they are advans. they are the dopest old school jdm wheels. i really wish i could get a set for the P5. as for colors, i know they come in some other colors but i am not sure which ones. if you find them in 5 lug, let me know.

no bro, there is way too much space between the spokes and you will be able to see all the dust, dirt and rust on the rotors/calipers easily.

what is this, early 1990s? that was 10 years ago, 20th century. and that few spokes really make the rim look "unbalanced"

It's clear that you my friend have a lot to learn about what "JDM" is. Those are classic JDM rims and look great when placed on the right vehicle like an FD or Z32 (300ZX). That syle rim isn't for everyone. I'm not sure if they'll look good on a P5, and with ther price tag on those, we will never no.

 

[YellowMP5]

Oh, excuse me. I don't know what JDM is. I guess its the end of the world because not everything is JD ******* M. So because its JDM I am supposed to like it? Why don't you move to japan

Now that's what I call a mature, educated and civilized reply. Thanks man, I needed a good laugh today.(lol) No, but seriously, sorry if I pissed you off man.(wink) I honestly didn't mean to.

 

[YellowMP5]

glad i make you laugh. thats what i am here for. you didn't get me mad, you just made me sond like an idiot because you pretty much said "oh they are JDM, you are suppose to like it and if you don't like then you are dumb"

 

[Concept P5]

i am starting to Think the 3 spokes are making a comeback in style.
I seen them in photo's of my buddy's trip to Japan.. losta 3 spokes on silvia's and crap now.
i dunno i think i should buy a set and be different.... get laughed at then ppl will realize they back haha

 

[rowan]

Advan just came out with a new model of the 3-spoke so that would probably explain the revival.
Plus ... everything 80s is cool again just as a general rule.
