now... i am stressing whether i should keep my OZ or go for the Advan....
the advan is the same size as my oz which is 17 x 7.5 but advan has +45 offset

I would love to do some photoshop of how the advan looks on my car but i have no time to do so :S
If someone wants to help, that would be great!

PLEASE tell me what you think...should i keep my oz or go for the advan?

this is how the OZ looks on my car... i am sure you guys all know how my car looks :P

If you decide to go with the advans and wanna get rid of the oz's pm me.

Either set looks good. My vote is sell the OZ and try something different.

RG's in that size will look tiny on the BE......just my opinion. I know not everyone's into big wheels, though. That photoshop is more like what an 18 would fit like.

Classic Japanese wheel, though, and they're tough to find in good shape. Best part about your own car is that you pay the bills - you're the only one that has to be happy :D

sybir: Your correct.. the photoshop is indeed off. The wheel is probably larger in size then it should be.. as I made it match the other wheels size. I thought about that when making it.. but hell..I didn't give it more then 2 seconds of though.

[subaru_terrence]

i decided not to get the advan RG anymore.

I agree with what other people mentioned... the RG will probably look better in 18s.

I would actually prefer advan RG2 or RS in 18s but too bad they will rub :(

i just pre-ordered a set of 225/45/17 dunlop z1s so i am pretty much stuck with 17" rims now...
I want to get new rims still but i just dont know what else will look better than the OZ on my car

some opinions from you guys would be GREAT!

Keep the OZs and color match your lip and rub strips.

What he said. The OZ rims suit your car so well. I'd just paint the rub strips. I'm from Toronto too by the way.

[subaru_terrence]

it's gonna be a bitch to strip everything out and colour match...
also, i think the black trims seem to have a nice contrast with the red

I agree the black on red definately looks better than say black on white.

My buddy has 19" gold Advan RS wheels on his G35 coupe. Absolutely gorgeous wheels. Would you be able to accomodate the low offset though?

um... i was thinking to stick with 17" since my old 18" rubbed a little

[Lone_legacy]

Ohh yeah, I wasn't recommending 19s for you. I just meant that I think they are good looking rims. Offset on the 17s is either 35 or 41 I think. I know that wouldn't fit my BD, not sure about the BE.

By the way if you are looking to sell the OZs I may be interested.

there is a LONG line up to buy my OZs on tsc right now... :P

i didnt know the highest offset for 17" is 41... then i guess it wouldnt work :S

[Lone_legacy]

Nevermind, you can get them in 17X7.5 ET48. That should work out if you plan to go that route.
