Hey guys,

Just wish to get some info. about the Advan RS rims. Looking to get 19's which should set me back around $4000 at the current rate. Would you guys recommend getting these or do you guys know some cheaper alternatives from lesser brands?

-Martin.

STi Enkei's (Subaru Oz is quoting them at $836 a corner on the accessories website and i'm sure you'd be able to get them cheaper elsewhere) :wink:


I agree with Tristan though. Damn hawt

very nice, if you look around you should be able to find something close, ive seen this style a bit but mainly for smaller 4 stud cars..

only thing is normally i think they are just a silver alloy colour so maybe powdercoating a set of copies would even work out cheaper than the 4gorillaz to get them here!

Martin, very good locking wheel, especially in 19's!

Nah, if you have the coin... stick with these. They hold their value well too!

Yup Agreed. Was heading that way but figured I rather spend several hundred more to distinguish from the pack. Besides 19's :D

Aye thats what I figured. Tried to find some quality replicas but they just don't cut the Advan's. Coinage is always an issue especially when I have a full brembo and tein coilovers in mind :(

Don't think u can get these in 19's for our car (5x 100) ........ if u want RS u might have to go either 18 x 8.5 or 18 x 8 or 18 x 7.5 ...

That is correct, they don't come in 5x100 PCD in 19's. I was asking the phat man about these rims a while ago when i was trying to make a decision on what i wanted.

There's an alternative wheel from Advan which look similar to the RS's that come in 19x8's for 5x100. Unfortunately they only come in bronze, silver, dark silver, and chrome. :?
