Avant Garde wheels...
Im specifically looking at the m310 but they only come in dolphin gray, its not a mat color but very close to it. Im just wondering how it would look on my 05 nbp. Im looking at 19x8.5.
I saw a guy here with forgester f14 wich are in similar color and design and really look good. But they are a little bit more then i wanna spend...
What do you guys think about them on a nbp Tl and the wheels in general...
Thanx

There is a member here with those exact rims but his car is silver. The look amazing, I'd do it 
I can't remember his name

DO IT! Advant Garde makes good wheels and classy designs for a great price. If your looking for concave the 8.5" will be disappointing.

I do a lot of long trips with the car so im gonna stick with 18's. Im gonna go with the safe route and go with 8.5 wide. Now i just gotta decide it im gonna go with the m310 which are offered only in dolphin gray. * dont know how that would look on the nbp or go with the TSW Nurburgring 18x8.5 45offset in gunmetal machined face. They are lighter and from what i hear pretty strong. Also the color combination would make them look a little bigger then they are. On the offset im looking for i thing they look very similar to the m310.
Still not sure thoe.... I have the ronjon legends right now, which are in similar design but i was never happy with them really. The design of the spoke makes them look smaller the they are.

Well, wheelstudio offers powder coating before it leaves their warehouse. For a little extra you could get the M310's in any color.
Also, I'm running 9.5's w/o any roll or pull. So you'd be safe going that wide. If you still decide to go with an 8.5" make sue its the 35mm offset.

I was going to convince him on the F14's but being that's out of the price range I decided not to mention them, plus the M310's are pretty wheels too. But if you really want the F14's OP, save up and get them, they're custom made to a size and offset of your liking. Keep in mind it takes over a month to get them though. Sharky had to wait 4 months 
but I think they're worth it.
As for your previous question I think the TSW would fit just fine.

Sorry buddy 
OP, either the TSW or the Avant Garde wheels are nice, they're similar in style too.

I agree, looking how the tsw have a little edgier spoke design i think they would flow very nicely on the Tl plus the machined gumetal. And very light and strong. I really like the m310 but i need more contrast on my TL since it is NBP.

went to a local dealer today to see the TSW Nurburgring in person and they do look good but they just look so similar to my Legends that I'm not even sure anymore. I really taught i would love them but i like them What i saw there too were the TSW Rivage in gloss black. They actually had a TSX with 20's lowerd on them and it looked unbelievably good !! I just dont know if 18 will do them justice at all but being the way they are in terms of design maybe 18 would look like a 19 inch. I had 19's before and so many problems with bent rims and such that i just dont wanna go that route anymore. The ride will be compromised and in couple of months even worse, as soon as they get deformed a little thats not it anymore.
I really like the look of the Rivage in gloss black, the other thing I really like about the Nurburgring's is that they are light and rotary forged which makes them stronger.
The Rivage, im not sure of the weight and how well they will hold up in the long run.
I really dont know what to settle on ...

Ok Avant Garde it is... Im gonna go with 18x9.5 40 offset. Just wondering if that will give me a concave look. Maybe not as much as 19" wheel but im hoping it will be decent.
