Which wheel for me? A or B? >>>pic
 
A<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<or>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>B
http://i42.tinypic.com/jt8aid.jpg

A (Left)=Advan RGII's in gold 8.5 X 18
B (Right)=Advan RS's in Dark Bronze of Hyper Black 9x17 +22offset

Car will be on stance coils and about 1" lower (still a daily) along with slotted rotors and red calipers when this is done...

VOTE!

Maybe do bronze calipers

Definitely not the 18x8.5's

That's going to look horrid.

But I wouldn't suggest the 17's either. At least not with that kit..

I would say, 18x9's with an offset of around 15 give or take. That wil give an aggressive look. And won't sink your battleship either.

Well so far I'm very limited to my offset on 18's for these wheels 8x9 wheel I'm given the following choices. +22,19,35 and 45. I'd like them flush (or slightly inside the fender) and would like to not have to worry about rubbing. I'm not sure about 9 wide in that respect as I'd think I'd have to roll the fenders vastly and or camber the tops inwards which ruins the look for me.


Here is a sexy FC with the RS's in 17x9 I was referencing.

whichever you like better :p:

don't go with +15s.... they'll need lots of camber.

17x9s are hard to fit in the front without fender rolling and lots of camber (if you actually want to run a decent sized tire like a 255)

before I went widebody I was running 17x9 +25s in the front and 17x10 +30s in the back with a 255/275 stagger.

Here is BlueTII fitting close to the same thing:

As far as the wheel style I'd say the RGIIs look way better.

Wheel A, but paint it the color of wheel B. :)
