advan connoisseur 151c wheels......lookalike

Postby Tien GtB25 » Thu Dec 10, 2015 5:55 pm

Guys,

Finally I got me a set of these through a friend of a friend....they are not the real thing but dont have $2K to spend on rims.
Been reading posts on here and wheels seems to be holding up ok. I was told they are from "Japan"...cant dispute that.

Specs are 18" x 9 x 42 offset - sitting on stock GT Spec B Blisten shock/spring set up. Was told they clear Brembo also... woohoo. The colour is Dark Gun Metallic. Comes with lug nuts and lock nuts too. Wheels looks mad stickin out with the 225 stretched tyres. Soon coilovers will make it look even sexier with the drop. I always wanted this style but cant affort them similiar to Jimmy's (Arith) ride Nyomi... now i can die in peace.

If u guys want them...send me a PM with ur mob number and i'll reply u if there enough interest for him to order more. I cant reveal the price coz or he wont cover my guarantee.
Name / Mob No. / Size / Style. There is another style call "RST" and for now both are supplied in one colour only - Dark Gun Metallic.

Next on the list ... frickin BC Racing coilovers..... i hate you all .... now i can't stop making her even more gorgous.

I was looking at the Takuma's when I was looking for wheels but heard he disappeared. Good to see you have found a dealer willing to work with people because they are a great looking wheel.

Why am I not surprise you will be the 1st to respond Shav....I still blame you for everything ... hope u still remember that.
While I at it ... my bucket list is still long.

- Coilover / roll guards (no choice to get the swat look);
- Dump pipe (to be install with muffler mid pipe);
- DBA T2 slots / Ultima pads;
- Cusco end links and maybe Whiteline sways front/rear;
- Window tinting to achieve the "murder look"; and
- Front lip / rear deck spoiler (2015 Subaru Wrx type - hope this fits as they have the same line /contour of the GTB);

Famous last words " I swear" that it.

I can neither confirm or deny the demise of certain members wallets due to modifications :mrgreen:

What are you paying for the BC coilovers btw?

Nice one! Just as pokey as my 8.5 +35...
Prepare for some guard rolling.
Get Shockworks with the $$$ you saved on the rims ;)
They're more than a cut above IMHO...

Shav ... havent got the coils yet ... looking / saving up for them now and waiting for a used set to surface .. hopefully BC Racing ones.
BBB... would love Shoxwork ones but right now cant justify spendin $$$ on car.

Looks good! Will look even better once coilovers go in. Nice to see how wheels in those specs look, I'm about to order similar spec but I'm going to be running 235/40
