Hey guys I am in the process of buying new wheels for my 8. It is a titanium gray and I was wondering which of these I am listing you like the best for my car. All opinions welcome. They are 19"x9 Advan Model 5 in Silver, 19"x9 Advan Model 5 in Gunmetal, 19"x8.5 Advan Connoisseur in silver, 19"x8.5 Roja R2-5 in silver, Volk GT-C in Gunmetal, Volk GT-AV in silver,or 19"x8.5 Piaa Super Rozza in Hyperblack. I am also thinking of getting Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R Tires in 245's. Here are some pics of the rims:

 

Here are pics of the Advan Model 5's in Silver and the Advan Connoisseur in silver:

 

The Roja R2-5s look amazing. That'd be my choice with a Ti Grey.

 

super rozzas!

 

advans model 5 look great

 

I've been looking for wheels now for awhile, I am adding the supper rozzas to my list of options. Those look good.

 

I like the Advan Connoisseur
I was at a Toyota dealership and noticed that the TRD wheels for the Scion xD look really similar to those


well, maybe just a little
lol

 

Roja R2-5... By far.

Rojas!! mad pimp

 

I really like those Rojas.

 

Keep the ones you have!!!!!

I know. . not an option here .. but the ones you have go so well with the car, why not spend the money somewhere else

 

roja's ftw.

 

I think the Advan Model 5's look amazing! Definitally get those.

 

Piaa Super Rozza Hyperblack FTW!

 

super rozzas = 3.14mp

 

Yeah I do really like the Roja's. I also added another pic of them above.

 

I think that the RO_JA's would make your car look sick.

 

the Advan Con's are discontinued and Volk GT-C are going away soon i heard..
these were believed to be Advan Con's..
Original Mazdaspeed RX8 Concept wheels

I also read somewhere that Advan wheels are made by Enkie them selves.

 

Yea that is true. When did you hear that the GT-C's were being discontinued?

 

advans are made by yokohama's. unless they somehow changed that...

but i like the volk gt-c. its the only nice looking one on the pictured cars so far.

 

Go with the Model 5's. I have them and I love them. The car looks amazing in person. I get compliments all the time.

Mine are 19x8 38 offset all around. My only wish is that I would have gone wider especially in the back. I didn't want to go with the staggered setup, but now I wish I would have.

Can you still get the Model 5's? I thought they were discontinued about a year ago. I could be wrong. I was told that by the guys at Vivid Racing and you know about them........

BTW, that first pic is DINHX8's car I belive. Those would be the Model T5's. Little different profile and wider spacing between the spokes.

I too think the stock 18" are well matched to the '8 and money better spent elsewhere. But if I must pick between all the very nice 19" you've listed:

from a very unreliable source.


To the other:
Yes Advans are owned by Yokohama, But Enkie makes there wheels.

 

Wow, I have been looking for new rims for my Galaxy Grey too. Haven't found any that looks better than the stock ones. But those roja's look awesome on the grays, If you do decide to get them let me know where you get em from. I'm in the bay area too
