If you're looking for a lightweight 19" setup I would recommend that you look into flow form wheels. I would also recommend that you check out the Forgestar F14 Flow Form wheel.

Flow Form Casting is a production procedure that turns the wheel (or rim section) over a special mandrel and three hydraulic rollers using tremendous pressure. The pressure and turning then force the rim area to form against the mandrel, creating the shape and width of the rim. During Flow Forming, the rim actually "flows" down to create the full rim width. During Flow Forming, pressure applied to the cast rim actually changes its mechanical properties, so its strength and impact values become similar to those of a forged rim. That translates to up to 15% less weight when compared to a standard cast wheel.

I see that you're looking to go with a fairly aggressive setup as well. Forgestar wheels can be made in virtually any offset, whereas standard cast wheels come in a set offset. This allows you to dial in exactly how you want your wheels to sit. Having custom offsets allows for fitment of wider wheels in stock suspension and lowered vehicles. Forgestar wheels are designed specifically for your car and it's suspension setup, where cast wheels are designed for everyone and typically do not take in to account lowered suspension setups.

I'll shoot you over a PM with more details. In the meantime here are a few pics for you to check out!

Advan Racing wheels are top choice!

Lightweight.

Strong.

Aggressive spoke design.

Also, if you plan on running RS-D in "M3" sizing, you will get the max amount of deep lip effect, 65mm of lip all around which will give your car that aggressive mix between lip and concave spokes.

You can't go wrong with either choices. Everyone has their preferences and the Forgestar F14 is definitely a great setup. However, if you're dead set on the ADVAN RS-D I can definitely help you out with that as well.

The ADVAN RS-D is available in the following sizes:
19"x8.5" +38mm
19"x8.5" +32mm
19"x9.0" +22mm
19"x9.5" +35mm
19"x9.5" +25mm
19"x10.0" +20mm

I'll shoot you over a PM with more details in regards to some fitments.

tell you what. whoever finds me the lowest offset wins. GO.

Victory Road · 08-30-2010, 02:03 PM

19 x 9 +22

19 x 10 +20

BOOM!

Gavin@MMW · 08-30-2010, 02:19 PM

lol im at 19x9.5 et12 front and 19x10.5 et12

I win

Victory Road · 08-30-2010, 02:21 PM

Now that E9X Non-M guys are going for aggressive offsets...

I wish they would make a 19 x 10 with a +12/+15 instead of +20, bolt on and no spacer fitment.

david @ eas · 08-30-2010, 08:00 PM

If you're looking for Advans, then don't settle for anything else, that should be the one you choose... We've been providing customers with Volks and Advans for a good amount of time now, and even more so with special forum pricing, we've become one of the hot spots for Advan and Volk wheels.

I'll send you a PM real quick to see what I can do
