TB Evo...Chrome Advan RS or Gun Metal/Black?

What you think would go better??

My gut feeling is the chrome since black on black is overplayed.

that doesnt make any sense at all.

"gtr face" refers to the offset and the general shape of the wheel (concave) not the name of the actual wheel like RS.

kinda, its not really the color as much as the wheel. Rs's and RG2's are very common on evo's. IMO there the most common advans hands down! if you want to be unique get something rare in terms of wheel company and design. not just a slightly more rare color.

and RS are avialible in: SBC (chrome) gunmetal (blackish) silver and gold. all colors are avialible in the gtr face (+22)

have you thought about any other brands like: HRE, IForged, Kenisis, Fikse, GFG's, UBER baller, or anything that you would not expect to see on a evo. HRE just came out with a new line of 1 piece forged wheels that are on par with advan or volk pricing. and no one has put those on a evo yet.

meh I dont really see a lot of wheels I like besides the RS... I really dont care about being unique..there no other evos in my area anyways.

I just want your opinion what color on a tarmac black would look better SBC or gunmetal.

You never see 18x9.5 RPF1 or NTO3 in SBC ...those would look nice but no one has them in stock.

if you're going to buy advan RS wheels and arent going widebody, get the 18x9 +29 offset. gtr face and will fit with 255/35/18 tires. if you have coilovers and can control the drop/camber...you can go wider on the tires.
