Thumbs up

you can buy mine's then

Advans Super Advans

Specs for the Advans are as follows:
4x114.3 bolt pattern
16x7 front 32+ offset
16x8 back 32+ offset

these are lightweight forged wheels 3 piece in design , so that means you can take them off apart to your liking. only real setback is the peeling clearcoat and minor rash blemishes, but the blemishes aren't very noticeable w/o looking closely.




AR Centerlines

specs are as follows:

4x114.3 bolt pattern
14x6.5" or 7" not sure all around
very low offset. i'm guessing around the neighborhood of +10 to +20 mm offset

the wheels has also been recently polished and are very cherry rare wheels.

ever heard of wheel adapters?

don't worry, i'm not here to steal your glorified thread about your new wheel acquisition. thought you'd be interested since you were wishing for 15s and 16s. don't let my advans and ar centerlines get to you

I have these same rims for my car. You got the make wrong I think. I looked through all of centerline's wheels and didn't find any like mine, but American Racing has one that looks EXACTLY like these and like mine. They are called Outlaw 1. I think my wheels were custom drilled though as they are 4x110 and they also include a unique center cap. More stylish than the truck style center caps. I got a pic somewhere of them on my car. 14x6" with about a 10-15mm offset. Here is a pic from the american racing site.



Anyway, back to the original thread here. Your rims look great on that car. I've seen "american" styled rims on 1st gens a few times and IMO, they look just as good as panasports or something along that line. BBS mesh style wheels are still my favorite, but they are so hard to find in the correct bolt pattern.

Nevermind my post. I guess I didn't look into centerline enough. Just had a quick look at their site and came across this:



Both american racing and centerline have the same style wheel. The difference is in the amount of curve from the rivets to the hub. Mine are clearly american racing, while yours are indeed centerline. Sorry about that.
