The Advan's astro bought came from a TLS here in Vancouver. My original choice was a sliver set of Kreuzer V's but the guy already sold them - but he did have a set of Advan's kicking around...

Very nice look. I love the look of those rims in bronze. How's the clearance with those wheels? Are you rubbing at all? Any rubbing with passengers in the back seat? I have the H&R's too, but i'm scared 19's would rub.

The ride height is slightly taller than with the stock 17's. I had to cut the rear tabs (a must with H&R Sport drop) but under hard cornering, no rubbing at all. I haven't had any rear passengers yet to check for rubbing. I would recommend if you're getting 19's, try for a higher off set like +47 and higher. Unfortunately, +45 is the highest for the Model 5's.

Thanks, it's been a long search for the right deal/seller/finaces. I would've liked your wheels, but the shipping and all the taxes/duties would have costed too much. Lots of benefits in buying local, that's for sure! Are you still looking to sell? Which wheel would you get next?

No - these wheels came from someone else in T.O. The set you're thinking belonged to InspireS and sold his set of Advan's to astroboy. InspireS (Eric) actually parted out his TLS and sold the car.

I got a sweet deal on my wheels/tires - the owner had to part out his car as he had to move back to HK asap. He had them one his car less than 2 months.
