Eww... ugly three spokers. Though I will admit those are the best ones I've seen. Whatever, your style is your style.

I love how 3spokes look on some cars.. but others they just dont look right on.

i like how they look on rx-7s supras and 240s

anyway.. i never see any 3spokes . Id like to do something different y'know

How much are the advan gen2 3spokes? and where could i get my hands on these?

I side with the monoblock crowd, simply because it seems like 2 pieces would come apart easier, even though individually they're probably stronger.

the cheepest advan wheel you can get are $350 per wheel and thats for 14x6 inch. You would be looking at at least 600 per wheel with 17 inchers.

Those wheels are the Volk Racing (Rays Engineering) C-Ultra wheels. I have a set (17"s) that I will be putting on my 93 240 Convertible once the new motor is in. They are a lightweight forged wheel that is no longer made. For a 3-spoke I always thought they looked good. David
