They're +35. After a lot of scrutinizing of just about every RZ pic on the net, it appears that the +25 (RS comes in +29, RZ 18x9 options are 25/35/45) has a deeper "well" but both have the same spoke concavity in the GTR face. Acoustix needed a roll for his +29's, which I wasn't prepared to do, and I'm not a fan of having the rim extend past the fenders anyways.

I ordered some Ventus Evo K110's, since everyone seems to rave about them. Thought I'd give them a try.

It'll be April before I get to mount them though... it's going to be a long wait.

It's perfectly normal man, just make sure you clean up afterwards.

garage is a mess and floods in the rain and this is basically the only part of the house that is out of the way and won't get me grief for being an eyesore

new Advan RZ's!
Here is what greets me when I step off the garage elevator at the end of every day of work

Name: 1.jpg Views: 472 Size: 59.7 KB

Name: 2.jpg Views: 469 Size: 81.9 KB

Name: 3.jpg Views: 522 Size: 54.9 KB

Name: 6.jpg Views: 447 Size: 66.5 KB

Specs:
18x9 ET+35 (GTR face), gunmetal

Name: 4.jpg Views: 435 Size: 41.8 KB

I know I could have run 265's, but I figured I'd keep stay with my previous size 245/40 to see if there is any difference in street feel with just the wider wheel that is pushed out a few centimeters.

Name: 5.jpg Views: 429 Size: 68.1 KB

I love these rims! Apparently the only complete set left in North America when I ordered them. Haven't decided on whether to center caps or not...
