i'm in the market for rims. i just sold the aftermarket ones that were on the car when i bought it (still have stock rims, but the tires are pretty worn). i have 500 to spend on rims and maybe a bit more, depends. i've looked on ebay thus far and found... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...43957those! my car is a 97 240SX SE, silver moss. i've been told that gun metal would like QUITE nice on it, so i'm looking for that mostly. also, from discounttiredirect, the 5-zigen super six rims are nice, however those are 148 per rim and i'd like a bit left over for tires

so if anyone can help me find nice (doesn't have to be new, just clean) gun metal rims for a good price, i'd appreciate it.

Good wheels for the 240 are somewhat hard to come by for cheap. That auction's wheels would be horrible for your car -- too narrow and crap offsets. You're looking for something more along the lines of 17x8 (and 8.5 or 9 in the rear) with around +30 offsets for pretty good fitment I think. I don't know S14's too well but they're not exceedingly different from S13's.
