WOW !!! Thanx guys..... well as some of you may know I'm from Canada so up here in the great white North our selection of wheels is somewhat limited. That is if you are on a budget and are trying to get a half deacent deal. I've done quite a bit of research on wheels that I was looking for and originally I was set on the circuit 8's in gunmetal. I then by accident came across the Advan RG's which totaly grabbed my attention and decided to go with that style. Now, Advan rims are very good quality and light BUT very expensive and I could not justify geting them. After all I don't race my car on the track anyways. The closest thing I came across were the Black Racing N1 Pro's but had to get them shipped from British Columbia which is all the way across Canada from where I am. It turned out that they had very good prices and the shipping was not bad at all. Bealive it or not, I could not find these rims in (Bronze, 16") here in Toronto. I think bronze rims look better then gunmetal on a black car because they a alot lighter in colour. Personally, I don't like black or flat black rims especially on a black car, hence my car is not tinted either .
As for pictures, I will try to get some pictures later tonight since I'm just about to wax my car (Bling, Bling). I'll post them as soon as I get them!

Thanx everyone for the comments!!!

Also, the total price of these rims + tire came out to be about $2200.00 (Canadian) and that's including shipping, taxes ballancing, and mounting. I could have opted out for cheeper rubber but to me that's safety and I don't mind spending extra $$$ on that.

Wow, I didn't think I would get so many replies.

Any idea what color of rims look the best on a silver g3 integra?

Mr. G- if you have pics of the wheels on your car, post them up.
