[ryanb876]

I am trying to get hold of a set of the Enkei wheels that come on the Tuned By Sti liberty. in the gun grey colour.
Can anyone tell me how it is possible to get some?

You could always get a set of the Rota Gravels, if you don't mind replicas

PHAT is doing them at the moment and there the 8"wide wheel as supposed to the 7.5"ones for a great price.

Contact him on his email.

Does anyone know anything about the Advan Connoisseur 19's
Where to get them?
How much
would these fit on a 07 lib without mods to the guards?

you can no longer get them in gunmetal, only chrome

^ ^As above^ ^

Also if you want to avoid rolling the guards, any 7.5" or 8.0" wheel between +50 and +45 offset with a 225 tyre will be fine

My understanding is that Yokohama stopped making the Connoisseurs altogether, replaced by Advan F15. Unfortunately the F15 only go as big as 18" for the Libertys, but do come in a very nice looking charcoal (darker than the gunmetal). As for the Connoisseurs in chrome, I think those are mainly leftover stock. But you could still get them in 19's, so if you're desperate enough you can buy the chrome 19's and powder coat them.

You'll need to roll the guards to fit if your car is anything other than standard height.

mmm Advan Connoisseur...

Here are mine (before the Brembo calipers went on):


Here are Jim's:

Interestingly, the Yokohama tire site still list them as a current model....

And specs here show in 19"

19x8.5 +50 - rather conservative fit, could possibly fit without a roll of the guard, pending tyre size/choice.

*shrug* Anyone is more than welcomed to contact Yokohama Japan. But everyone I know who's tried to order them through Phat, he's returned with news that they have been discontinued when he contacts Yokohama.

Well I said the newer F15's don't come in 19's for 5x100 PCD. Never said anything about the original Connoisseurs. But as Clarence mentioned, anything beyond standard height will require rolling of the guards (even standard height with a full load may require it as well).

Clarence and Jim do you guys have a 225 or a 235 tyre ?

This wouldnt surprise me actually - in hindsight I tried to get some Buddy Club P1 in 18x9 +38 from Japan to be told they are no longer in production / discontinued while they are still as available on their website.

That is for 151c's and I was pointing out that the only 19" rim in the 151c's available now seemed conservative.
But that being said, I still think you would get away without rolling the guards for an 8.5" +50 wheel as I have 8" +45 and get no scrubbing, even loaded and over heavy bumps. Therefore lowering will only place the guard closer to the tyre at all times, which I'm happy to confirm that it doesn't scrub.
Maybe wagon has slightly different/wider guards than the sedan?

Pretty sure they are both running a 225
