They are both the same wheel!!! I think vivid has made an error on their side, no way would advan make 2 wheels SO similar, the curvature of the spokes is determined by how much of an offset you go for.

the concave-ness of many of the advans really makes the rim imo...make sure you get the right offset and width if you get them. w/o the concave ness it looses some of its style be it RZ or Rs
the t5s have a bit more concave-ness than the old Model 5s, which i was I went with the T5s.
but you can easily not get that same cool look if you don't get the right offset/width/

Yeah, that's right. Look at the bronze RZ, the space between the spokes where it says "ADVAN" on the lip is bigger than the space between the spokes where it says "Racing". They are kind of a very subtle twin 5-spoke as apposed to the RS where all the spokes are spaced evenly (a true 10-spoke).
In the OP, the first gunmetal colored wheel is the RS (you can even see the sticker on the spoke), the second and third pics are the RZ.
The wheels look deceptively similar.

Man, We Ain't Found Sh*t!
don, what about a set of rgII's? similar look with less spokes.. yet still sexy.. if i could get any wheel i wanted it would be those or prodrive gc-05f's, 2 of my favorite high dollar wheels.. or a set of work emotions with the sbc/rmc finish.. with blue lugs.. don't mind me, i'm still saving up for a set of rp-f1's

^ Agreed, the RG2's look awesome. Tried to get 18x9's with about 28 offset to work on all for corners but wouldn't fit. Was fine in the back but stuck out to far in the front. I have a WB 8 also, and and plan on going with with white RG2's with greater offset (gun meatal is in close, in second place).
