TL with Advan Connoisseur No. 51c

Since I don't have an Acurazine account, I'm going to borrow my brothers one to show you guys my car.

Here it is. Tell me what you guys think. Just got the rims for it.

Rim shot.



Full body shot.

THanks man. I'm in the process of getting Tein SS coilovers. So in the next few weeks I'll post new pics with a drop.

I love your car, I've seen it once in Alhambra. Very nice.

Those are a very mature wheel.
They do look very small for being a 19'' wheel, even with the spokes extending to the very outer edge of the wheel. Thats odd, because most wheels that has spokes that extend to the edge look very large.

As said before, slamming it would set these wheels off with a very Luxury look.

Cant go wrong with ADVANS either.

I have to agree that the wheels look small for 19's. However, larger tires (245/35-19) would help the look tremendously. The wheels look like they are less than an inch from touching the road.

Those rims are sickkk, I love basically all Advans.

+1 on increasing the tire size. Looks like you're stretching a 225, or maybe even 215, tire on them...

These wheels are pretty. I am thinking about getting the MRR HR2s 19" but I like these wheels aswell, anyone knows where you can buy these? Are they expensive? Which should I go for, MMR HR2 or Advan Connoisseur? Heres a Link to the MMR HR2 if anyone wants to compare.

Thank you all.
