Agreed. I've been running 3 piece adv1's for 2 years now. No issues with vibration or leaks. I've had many sets of HRE wheels in the past and this was my first attempt at ADV1 and I've been very happy so far.

You can read all kinds of crap on the Internet, with people posting negative comments with a specific agenda...

4everkidd, wheels look great. Congrats!

Murph, don't take it too personal.. U look all offended. Lol

I'm only stating my opinion & what happened to my 3 friends. I'm glad u love ur ADV & they do look hot so are OP's wheels.

I just personally would not buy them, and hope u can understand. The show must go on!

Edit: sorry to OP for adding my opinion on ADV, it is irrelevant to this thread.

thanks gents.

And as far as the quality goes, I have yet to own a set of wheels with better craftmanship.

He probably did read. I read through the whole thread and didn't see anything except Murph said "+52 on an 11" rear", which doesn't quite answer his question of what are the specs of ALL the wheels width and offsets.

I would suggest editing your first post and update it with the relevant wheel info so you don't get asked again. BTW your car looks good man! I am looking to get a set of ADV.1s myself

They look great my question is how to they ride?

What was last tire size prior to 255/305's and do they compare handling wise?

Any Pro's and Con's going with set-up?

Traction ? same, good or great, this question is for guys like me that are modded with header/exhaust combo's it also pertains to no modded guys as well

20x9 +34 (F) and 20x11 +52 (R), as stated in the FS thread for these wheels.

4everkidd- it looks amazing all around. The added meat, especially in the rears is also nice to have.

I haven't felt a major increase in understeer with the new setup.

With my coilovers set, the ride is not to bad at all. There is definitely an increase in road feel with the rubber band height tires, but nothing I can't handle in day to day driving. I will be raising my car this weekend however, as its far too low for the day to day

Definitely a huge increase in traction as my ability to spin through first has diminished, although that could also be attributed to the increased weight.

I plan on grabbing a set of headers right away, so i'm hoping this setup will keep the power pinned down.

they did... but I was slammed

After raising it up to a more daily driveable hight there were no more issues. I also rolled the rear fenders, and bent the front tabs in with my hands. Superman? No... They are just flimsy sheet metal

Default Rolling

4everkidd, this is my first time on this site. I see you are a Cowtown resident like me. Do you mind telling me who rolled your fenders in town ? I have been unable to find anyone that wants to take on that responsibility.
