I bought the 16x8 +35 Advan RG's from tsunami0ne today. Pretty nice wheel that's gonna let me put some much larger tires for autox'ing. Not a fan of the gold though.... The 205 Michelin don't cut it for my lead foot

. When I drove to his place my transmission is making very loud screeching noises now so I got to park it for awhile until i get a replacement tranny (~193k miles)

. Here are the current mods and pic's.

very good job on the rim acquisition. i likey the gold and white

p.s. now all she needs is a silvia front end, power, and the deletion of those black rubber things. they were the first thing i ripped off my car.

you're car looks nice as is, just drop it a bit more (or get some bigger tires) and it'll look sweet! your wheels also look pretty flush for +35, are they +35 all around?

Hikarispeed · 10-02-2004, 07:11 PM

Silvia front end is at the end of the long list I have and power I'm still thinking which way to go. Those rubber things on the fenders, how do u remove them carefully?

The wheels are +35 all around. Looks pretty flush (well to me at least) up front and the rear can get kicked out a bit more. I don't think I'll go bigger tires, I think its the OEM diameter. Lowering is possible, but it don't look like a monster truck so I'm happy.

BRB gonna go back outside to look the wheels again hahah.
