Were you RG 2's 18X9? I thought I read somewhere they were 18X8.5. The shot of your car rolling down the street is my desktop til I can get a pic of my car rolling down the street.

Your car and jbigelow's pretty much made up my mind. Plus....I found these in stock and there wasn't anything else in stock that I was really interested in and I didn't want to wait 3 months or so for some wheels.

Mitchubishi....I never thought about the spoke thing. These wheels look nothing like the stock wheels...even having the same about of spokes. I'm not a fan of not having a centercap either, but I guess it goes along with the look these wheels have going for them. It's all part of going with the different look I guess.

I have no problem putting my little boy in the back of my car. Any car can be dangerous when used improperly. On the highway, my car doesn't see over 60mph with him in the car.

I'm not actually positive what size they were...I was told 18x9 +29 when I bought them, but lil_evil_evo and I had a debate as to whether they were or 18x8.5 +35...

Anyway, they are some of THE best looking wheels IMO!

FYI, 255's will be hard pressed not to rub in the rear. We have the same rims on 2 of our cars, and one made due with 245's, one required us to go with a 235. The different tire shapes I guess.

But my 18x9 GTR face Advan RS's rubbed with 235/40/18's. Had to roll the fender and make a slight camber adjustment.

So do some research before you order or mount those 255's.

Well....I already ordered the tires today. I ordered 255/35 Yoko AVS ES100's. Mr. Suave has 255/35's on his car without any major issues.

I looked for like 2 weeks for pics of different tire sizes on these wheels with this offset and I never came across yours. I guess I didn't look hard enough or soemthing.

If I have to, I'll roll the fenders. I will hopefully be getting some coilovers in the next few weeks and I'll be able to raise it up and stiffen the ride up a little. I'm running some negative camber right now so I guess I'll just have to see how it works out.

18x9 ADVAN CHROME RG2 ; wrapped in Pirelli ?CORSE? R-Compound 255 tires. Not polished, not aftermarket chrome, japanese chrome advan. Using JIC A1 coilovers. Fenders had to be rolled and altered in several spots because of rubbing.

That was posted by you guys. I do remember seeing this post while searching. I dont' plan on running my car as low as you guys have your silver one.

If you don't mind, post up some pics in here of them with the smaller tires on them if you don't mind. If it makes that much of a difference, I may sell the Yoko's and get soemthing smaller.

Thanks for the heads up though.

Oh I meant have him sitting in the drivers seat or standing and holding onto the wheel..not you driving with him in it .

I was waiting for my name to come up. I wanted these wheels so bad I looked hard to get the correct answer which I never did, but I still think I'm right lol.

Corey read this thread starting with the last post on this page

I'll snap some pics and post for you.

The silver, now Jade, has the RG's and they fit a little better than my RS's. But the RG's had the 255 Pirellis and they rubbed pretty bad.

Ordered the tires yesterday and they shwed up less than 24 hours later on my front step. Now I need to figure out how to get all this stuff to the shop.
