My new 19"s
She still needs a proper wash and im no photographer but here they are. I hope to do a proper photoshoot soon.

specs are Advan RZ Dark Gunmetal 19x9 +35
hankook ventus v12 245/35/19 all around

i had to remove my 15mm spacers to drive home but i plan to roll fenders and put spacers back on and lower some more.










i personally have fallen in love with her all over again, im a very happy with my wheel choice.

what do you think?

the brakes look tiny now lol, but thats ok i did it this way to make room for my future BBK.

oh and btw im getting anodized purple valve caps soon. incase anybody is gonna chirp me about those lol.

Beautiful.

Much much better than your previous setup Not sure if you can throw the spacers back on with 245 tires tho. Will be a pretty tight fit even if you dont go lower

haha, ya my previous setup was a budget setup that lasted 2 summers. but saved up some spare change over that time and made an investment on a real set of wheels.

oh btw how are ur headlights? brandon did them right?

did u paint ur crKAIs white?

what size wheel/tire u running?

Outstanding wheel setup. The purple valve stems will pull it all together. I don't think you need to lower it anymore though....just my opinion.

So sexy

I'm running 18x8.5, 245/40/18, +25 in the rear and still rub a little. If you really want to throw those spacers on you may have to do a minor pull. I just got a set of 235 tires to try to minimize the rubbing.

I love those wheels! if I ever decide to sell my LMs, I would get Advan RZs in a heartbeat. I have a question, are those the ebay roof spoiler? How is the fitment and paint?

Looks nice man, awesome wheels. Looks like you have done some nice upgrades. Is the roof vinyl or paint? Ever think of painting the spoiler and antenna black to match the roof?
