I'll look into the pics more and find more detail to post.
Maybe Advan made them as prototypes and then didn't release them??? There are several pics of them online that look legit, along with what appears to be a shiney version.

The seller referred to these pics in the first post of the Nasioc thread (which he later deleted):

I have authentic Advans and the logos are painted on. Not sure of the RGDs but the RSDs also has the polished lip and black spokes but mine were refinished all black.
