Lonestar Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 Hey all, I've just snagged some advan BRX rims and was just wondering what is your view on them, love me, hate em, I think they look cool as hell and would great on my 210. http://japanesenostalgiccar.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9691 here's a link at the NJC forums about them. The one's I've found don't have the red on them and are fully polished. Let me know. :lol: Quote Link to comment
ggzilla Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I never saw them before. They look kindof ... quirky Lada Skyline Quote Link to comment
fisch Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 I think they are bitchin. And should be sweet on your 210 because the 210 has more hard angles than say a 510. You better get pics up ASAP! Quote Link to comment
josh_t Posted February 2, 2012 Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 i think they look sweet. definitely unique. its very simple too. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I never saw them before. They look kindof ... quirky Lada Mistubishi Lancer. ;) And I think they'd be cool. They look good on square cars, and never seen them on a 210. Do it. :cool: Quote Link to comment

king bee66 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 very nice. will really stand apart from all the standard datsun rims we see too Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Roger that. :cool: They are 14's so size tire do I wanna start looking for? First, how wide and what offset are the wheels? :cool: Assuming they aren't 8-9" wide, I'd start with a 185/60-14 (6" wide) or 195/60-14 (7" wide). Unless of course you're looking for some streeeetch. ;) Quote Link to comment
Lonestar Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 If I rememeber right, 0 offset and I think 7 to 8 wide. Edit, derp. Quote Link to comment

datsunfreak Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 This is the set I'm getting. if I read right, 12 offset and 14x6.5, not bad right? Not as aggressive as the Rewinds, but should still look good. Stretch is out, though. ;) A 195/60-14 will look good. :cool: You're running a 195/50-15 now or 205/50-15? Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 And those are pretty sexy... :cool: Quote Link to comment
Lonestar Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 195/50-15 on the rewinds. *Nods* Ok then, I'll start looking around and see what kind of tires I can find in that size and Hey, when you gunna call me out there so I can get those parts?:D Quote Link to comment
Lonestar Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 And those are pretty sexy... :cool: Oh yeah! I was thinking of maybe having the center part of them painted gloss black but I'm not sure yet. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 FWIW, I have a very low mileage (90-95% tread left) set of BFG Radial T/As in a 185/60-14 size with nothing to put them on. :cool: Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Oh yeah! I was thinking of maybe having the center part of them painted gloss black but I'm not sure yet. Personally, black makes the centers kind of "disappear". If you want something funky, don't hide it. :cool: If I was going to paint the centers, I'd go red like most of the other versions of these wheels. But I wouldn't paint them. ;) Quote Link to comment
king bee66 Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 imo they look ghetto when they are chromed out like that Quote Link to comment

Lonestar Posted February 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Whoo! Should be having my rims by next week, can't wait! John, you've got a PM. Quote Link to comment
Lonestar Posted March 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Got my rims in and love them! I gotta say, for 14 inches rims they are super freaking light! Oic's! Now I just need some tires and I'm styling! Quote Link to comment
fisch Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 Super tech looking I dig them man. I actually dig that they are not painted too. Something beefier about them. Quote Link to comment
datsunfreak Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I don't suppose there's any chance that grill is for sale?!? :blink: Quote Link to comment
Lonestar Posted March 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 I don't suppose there's any chance that grill is for sale?!? :blink: LOL, I should have figured you'd be looking for that grill. I dunno if it will be or not, I got ripped off from a guy on JNC forums when I bought it. Two of it's tabs got busted while in shipping and it looks like someone took a screwdriver to it and tried to scrape all the paint off of it. Been dabating on rather I should fix tabs, sandblast it and paint it soild black. Quote Link to comment
