Default Check out these New Advan Wheels for GS

I finally found acouple of true racing wheels - Kinda the New Style without the the outer Lip (more of the flush look) The wheels look bigger because the spoke come all the way out to the tire- In 19 inch setups for our GS's...
I'm having a hard time deciding between 2 of them--

Though the Advan Connoisseur is very Luxury/Sport Looking - Check it out --





Or this Really 'Racy' Looking Advan Kreuzer V --


Which one do you think looks best? - Hard Decision!!

Default PhotoShop Anyone?

I wish I had Photo Shop to Super-impose these wheels on a Pic of A GS to see how it really looks - will it look good?

Anybody wanna try? Help... ?

I prefer the thinner spokes of the Kreuzer- but you'd better upgrade the brakes... I like the way the spokes on both wheels flow to the outer edge, but there is no possibility for a deep lip.

Here's a question: why can't the Japanese wheel manufacturers make a nice flush center cap?

Here's how it's done: the new HRE 845R

Hey,
I seen those HRE's new lips, that wheel the 845 looks similar to the Kreuzer and have the the Lip - Kinda like the best of both worlds.. something to consider... HRE-hmmm a bit pricey...

Those Kreuzers are just so sweet - I'm planing to go with the AP Brakes which will make it a nice setup.. Now for the Twin-Turbos!

Thanks,
QWK

BTW-I went to HRE's Website And They don;t have the 800R Series but I goto Wheel Experts - and they have it! and HRE don't even show their own rim?

"Its so secret - HRE don't even know they exist!"

Thumbs up Thanks GsWill

Thanks dude,
I'll bet those Project U's will be hard to get.. I think I'll stick the WilWood or the Brembos or AP Racing.. Tough Choice?
Which is the lightest brake set up between the Three???

Does anyone know?

Thanks,
QWK

The Wilwood are the lightest...5.2 pounds per caliper...

And for the GS, I would do the Connoisseur...the Kreuzer V's are little too thin for such a heavy body car like the GS...it would look better on the SC or IS....
