Here is my car currently. It is lowered a little and has a black stoptech BBK. Can't see the BBK all that well from far away but when you get close it is bulging through the spokes. I like the low key black calipers, but I think a thinner spoke wheel would let it be seen a lot better. Also, both these wheels are lighter than even my stock wheels. The RSII comes in better offsets, I may have to use spacers on the weds. Also the weds only come in black if you don't get the goofy color accents. But from a pure looks standpoint, please vote on which you think would look better. I am really torn. If you really think I should stay with the stock wheels, please state your opinion here as well.

CAR NOW:

This is I think a sebring silver (NOT SILVERSTONE), with the old RS wheels.

You can see the BBK really well with these wheels:

As much as I like the Weds, the advan is a more serious wheel. The SA60 is almost ignored by weds. They have very limited sizes. Then it can only be had in flat black... and the machined sides.. I am not into this accent thing with 2 colors, its too F&F for me. But it can just be painted. The advan on the other hand are available in many more offsets, the new one is even more concave, even lighter, even stronger. Weds needs spacers. Advan doesnt.

Here is a Weds replica in black. It's not the hottest looking here. Not like the gray on the RX7 above.

Sell your oems and get both lol:wink:
 
Someone please close and lock this thread. Comparing those weds (fast n furious) to Advan's is a crime. :biggrin:
 
$750?!! to hang some heavy fiberglass on...

Ummm... No.

I'm beginning to think that you're right. When you don't offer proper sizes and do blue and red accents it looks like you just aren't serious. It's definitely too "tuner", meanwhile advan continues to make theirs more functional.
 
Advans. But I think black wheels get washed out more and you don't really see the detail of the wheel. And I don't think your calipers will be noticed at all.

Basically blacked out wheels draws more attention to the car which is fine if that's what you want but if you have a really beautiful wheel and want to show it off black is not the right color. IMO
