Honda's dont deserve to roll on Advan Super Gen's cars like the Acura NSX, Supra, and RX7 are the ones that look best on.

Also note he stated 4 lug. Some of the rims pictures are only available in a 5 lug.

I have also been looking at wheels for the last few months. i would like to replace the 17's I have for some other 17's or maybe go with 18's depending on the spokes and pattern. I haven't settled on any wheels yet with. I really like the Konig feathers but are only offered in 17x7. I would like something a bit wider

I still think Rota Sub-Zero's look really well on our cars.


I agree, those are very nice wheels

I've always loved the Ralliart R-01:

Though I like the white version best:

Unfortunately I don't believe it comes in 4-lug fitment.

im eventually going with work emtions-cr kai or xd9 leaning towards xd9 though around 1200 brand new if i was rich,volk te-37v with -5 offset in the rear for max lip but they are closer to 2500$ and a nice wait.

I see people showing wheels that have a lot of lip. Offsets like those don't usually work on our cars. Anything more than an 8" width with a +35 offset will stick out something fierce without a lot of camber or fender rolling.

These SSR's would look great on a GVR-4.



I posted that one already on my first post
