18" VR TE37s or Advan RGs

Guys, would like to have your opinion on wheels. Am currently running on Volk Racing TE37 18" x 8.5"j +30, white, and fitted on a white vii. I am contemplating on whether to swap those rims to Advan RG, gold, 18" x 8.5"j +31.... Which do you think its better on my car? White TE37s or Gold RG?

And if I'm not mistaken, the RGs are slightly heavier than the VRs... correct me if i'm wrong... If there was a CE28N bronze for sale, I would not hesitate to get it without a thought...

Thanks.

This is a pic of my car....

The RG has been discontinued, hasn't it, replaced by RGII.

Dude, I hate to be the one to break it to you but... you could put pink wheels on that car and I wouldn't want it any less. My car is white on white so I am parcial to the TE-37s but if you can afford to have both sets I know the RGs would look killer on the car too.

Correct, the Advan RG has been discontinued. The RGII should hopefully come out sometime this summer.

I still like the white, it just seems like it would be a pain to clean. Bronze, white or gold are my favorites.

I personally like the TE37s better with what you have done to the car already. I think it just flows and looks cleaner… here's a quick photoshop chop I threw together for you:
