rgII's.

no one who likes the weds models that fit our cars should ever complain about weight, because they are heavy for what they are. especially the price. but they do look good (maybe even more so than the rg's?) and they are made well.

i personally voted for the advans, simply becuase if money was not the issue, id go for them, because of the weight AND looks.

people are right about the resale, but don't buy them because of that.

and who cares if anyone else rocks them, buy it because you think it looks good.

some of you cats are funny. "so many people have those!" puh lease. all it takes is for 2 members to have the same wheels and everyone wants to avoid them.

Sure do.... Get the Work XSA 02C.. a very good wheel that every swinging D!@K doesn`t have.... but you have to decide which ones you will want...

yeah, i think i've decided to go ahead with my initial thoughts and go with the Works in gold.

Now if I can get them in under 8 weeks, that will be even better.

go with whichever is the lightest.

Personally, I like the look of the Work wheels.

i'm sure they will be. i'm just impatient. lol

now...which suspension setup to go with? this will be an even more difficult decision.

i've used tein on the last 3 cars i've owned and they are showing no love for the GE8 yet. well...in the states that is.

I was planning on getting the Advan RGII in bright chrome but it looks like I might have to wait 6 months...I don't think I've got that much patience! I might go for something else. Good luck getting what you want...hope you are more patient than me!

Advans RGII. I'd go for the old school RG's if you can get a hold of them.

Works in Bronze. Little bit more understated than the gold. I think it will hold up better over time.

Wedsports. I'm sorry but those Works have way to high of a bling factor and look a little over the top to me. DONOTWANT.

Out of these three, I'd pick the Weds.

For me it's a toss up between the Wed's and the Advan's, I'd probably go with whichever was lighter yet stronger (if possible). I'd say go with a contrasting color to make them stand out on the SSM.

I kinda like the pic that was posted with the Fit on the old school BBS's.
just my opinion....
