gold CEs or gold ADVAN RS!!!
you're a little off there buddy. the RS's in that size aren't that light. the CE's are a little over 17lbs, but the advans are at least a pound and a half to 2 pounds heavier if not more in that size. on top of that, they aren't nearly as strong. it's also easier to find an offset in the Volks that fits the EVO without fender rolling or stretching tires that don't fit.

CE's FTW... The Advans RS's however would look good in Gold, or Silver

The diamond black CE's were a limited run for team ralliart a year or so back...this is why all of you have been having trouble trying to find a set. Just my $.02

I would go with a set of CE's then have them powdercoated in black...ta da you win...with a bit of $$ of course

I would go with the CE with the aggressive offset. I think advan is a bit expensive for cast wheels, but they look so nice.

That's what my scale says... 17 lbs, maybe a little more, but not more than 18.

Whoa whoa whoa. Suave, the last time I saw your car, it had a set of TA CE's on it. The red lip with your red car was the best look I have seen with those wheels. Please keep them.

Good luck finding a set though...the body shop curbed one of mine and I've been looking for someone that sells them and have been unsuccessful so far.

Let me know if you do find someone though, or already know where you can find them.

wow man look good. have you talked to cal at speed element he is usually pretty good with finding things

if i can get an aggresive offset with out having to go bigger and without rubbing issue's then i am sold on the ce's and like you said the rs are a lil expensive for a cast wheel but look so nice
