Summer rims going on next year:
18x8.5 et45 Advan RZ Gunmetal w/ 245/40/18 Bridgestone RE01Rs







Just some teaser pics.

Sweet wheels and great tires. How's the fitment? Any rubbing issues? What's your camber front and rear?

Nice wheels. If I were to ever get another set of wheels I'd get the gunmetal RS's. You put the wrong side wheel on the car for the picture though.

Thanks,
Fitment is fine as I’ve been running the same size set up for a few years. No rubbing issues as I have it fully rolled in the rear. I do need to adjust camber and align it thou as I haven’t done that sense I added the SPC adjustable ball joints. I think with some neg camber in the front this size will be fine once dropped. And I put in a new knuckle on the left side as mine was bent and the tire is pointing like 10* to the right while the right tire and steering wheel is strait. I have some pics I will post. I guess that proves that the knuckle was bent.



Thanks,
I like the RS better, but you cannot get one with a GTR face that will fit our cars. I dont like the ones without the GTR/concave face, that I why I went with the RZ because the have 18x8.5 et45 w/ GTR face. I tried to fit an 18x10 et35 RS that has a GTR face but that failed. You can see my front fender is all fucked up from that attempt. The other closest size is an 18x9 et29 so no deal. And Ya I know it was the wrong side. I ended up getting drunk and then put the proper wheel on that side as I was going to drive to Las Vegas to get married. Thank god that didn’t happen...Winter wheels all back on and just need to get it aligned so I can drive it.

Sweet wheels!

You have excellent taste in rims my friend......

nice wheels



and wait what??

Thanks


Yea after 2 years I finally got them! Wish I had know what you knew when I ordered my first set and I would have had them then...


Thanks
Oh nothing, thou one day im sure it wil happen.

Look how bad my alignment is! I replaced what I thought was a bent left knuckle (hit a curb a while back) and man my left wheel is turned like 10° with the right wheel and steering wheel straight. So I assume when I had work done to the car and they aligned it rather than replacing the knuckle like I told them they made it align so now that I have the good knuckle on its throwing the wheel off that far. Could that be? I dont remember the wheels being that far off right after the hitting of the curb.
I got to get an alignment, but if I align it now and drop it in spring will I need to align it again? Wonder if I could alignt it myself...







Can see the damage I did to my fender attemping to get that first set of advans to fit.

Yeah, you're right about the low offset look. I saw the RS's 18x8 +45 on a TSX without the low offset look and it didn't seem like anything special.

I don't think it'll matter when you get your alignment. I haven't gone in for an alignment after changing from stock springs to aftermarket springs and then to coils and my car still drives straight. Maybe I just got lucky
