So, I'm on the hunt for wheels this summer. I want something that's a little different than the norm around me. Lots of tC's around me rocking Rota's...., just not my style. I've been thinking of Super ADVAN Racing ver.2 in Red.....my car is CSM but i'm unsure if the red will go good. I also have TRD springs currently. Was looking into Coilovers but may stick with TRD's for now. Hope they will look alright. Opinions are welcomed with red advans on a CSM. Looking at ordering from Gruppe-S....I heard they are good. Any opinions?

Quick Info:
Looking to spend 2k-3k on wheels.
Most likely looking for 18'' wheels with low offset (This will be a Nebster Question)

Well here's some general pics. Let's hear some opinions on these wheels on my car or if you can point me in a direction to another wheel within my price range, that is welcomed also.

Here's a quick pic of my car:

Yea, they have 18x8 with a 38 offset which is what I will most likely get.

38 isnt really low. i would say get 18x8.5 et 30 or soemthin

ScionJim23

I would but they only have 18x8.5 45....no 30. I may just need spacers. lol

nebster

red will look fine.

i dunno how custom you can go with them but talk to gruppe-s about it. They should be pretty sweet. If you don't want to rub 8 +38 would be fine but if you want to look good go with a 9.5 et+32 out back (what i ran) but you'll have to do some modification to the fenders.

Yea I wouldn't mind rolling the fenders to accommodate the extra size.]. I'm going to talk to Gruppe-S this week to see about custom sizing. Hopefully they can come up with something. i also hope it doesn't take forever to get the wheels.

nebster

it will. all advans are pressure cast and they'll take a pretty long time to make a cast and then get them finished.

i was afraid of that....haha. Nebster, do you have any general idea how long it may take to get these....I'm assuming Gruppe-S can tell me but I'm anxious to know.

Ro_Ja

Do ittttt

ScionJim23

Well that's straight to the point Ro_Ja. I know what your opinion is . I'm just waiting on Gruppe-S to get back to me on custom sizes, pricing and ETA for delivery.

Ro_Ja

:D

well, it seems that everyone is in favor of it. All i can do now is wait on Gruppe-S to come through.

my next decision is keep the TRD springs or get coilovers...ehh so many decisions. I have time though. There's still snow outside.

Ro_Ja

Coilovers.

BlizZard

Your not going to be able to pull them off with trd springs, trust me! I couldn't even pull it off with hotchkis springs lol

you need to slam it to make them look good.

i think blue is better

trust me i thought about the blue but don't know if I will get sick of it or not.

tCtCtC

BLUE FTW

ScionJim23

iTrader: (1)

This is a wild guess, but i think tctctc wants me to get BLUE. haha. I'll get 1 red, 1 blue, 1 gold, and 1 gunmetal.....maybe not.

tCtCtC

well my dream tc has blue advans, so i have reason lol
