Question Red Rims?

Anyone seen or know where I can get some red racing rims. Ive looked all over and can't find them. The wings west focus has some red rims and I would like to know where to get them. Thanks in advance. Red Rims =

you'd probably have to paint them yourself or something..i know a lot of those companies have their cars/rims color-code matched n stuff

You can get advan rims. Advan likes red rims. My friend has a set of super advan sa-3s on his s13. Unfortunately they don't sell those any more. But advan does have these in red.

The other red rim they seem to be making right now is this one and it seems to be mainly black with some red.

You'll probably going to have to import advans if you go with them.

Links aren't working for me. I really want red rims though. I've got a dark gray and red theme going. You also never see any red rims around so that's a plus too

Okay thats weird...sometimes the link works for me sometimes it doesn't. Here's the link to yokohama's main website if the top 2 links aren't working.

On the left side, click on the link second from the top. The rims that are red or have some red is the Advan Racing Oni and the Super Advan Generation II

I just dont want to buy some expensive rims and ruin them by painting them you know? So thats why I asked if there's any already red. Some RED Motegi 7's wouldnt be bad though.

Listen to Ben. Buy whatever style you like and powder coat. That way you're far less limited.
