Dustin..

Are those gonna be the SSR wheels? or no??
Got a buddy with 300ZTT with those wheels..
They are nice.. BUT had some issues with those rims.
They kinda bend easy, sowatch the potholes.
And they are 3 piece and got
a air leak where the front lip and Face of the rim
came together..

Oh yea.. Make sure you get them staggered,
Wider wheels in the back. If you can with chrome
lips..

Personally: I think 5 spoke wheels are so played out.

BTW: NICE Avatar.. Who is she?

I'd have to see them installed, but I don't think I'm going to like them.

There you go, that is what they look like. But mine are getting a wider lip custom made in the back as we speak. So for now they are the same all the way around. The only info really is that they are hard as hell to get and I am pretty certain that Rod Millen is the only one who can get them imported from Japan.

Is that real 3 piece rim or just 3 piece look? They're cool, but the spokes of that rim look too skinny for the style of the FD. Again, I will assert that my belief that Advan's are #1

It's a true 3-piece...
