You would expect that since this a Yokohama tire ad, that they would use their own brand wheels in that promotion.
However I can't see this particular style under the Advan (Yokohama) brand - not sure if they have another brand name?
Here is link anyway - they have some other great options for you to consider. I have the limited edition (chromed) A.V.S. Model 7's myself. http://www.yrc.co.jp/tire/wheel/main.html
 
I am working on getting the pricing, however, due to the importer's request, pricing will not be publicly posted, only private quotes through e-mail and phone. These wheels will fit the NSX, but it only comes in 18/18 or 18/19. There is another wheel in the line that comes in 17/18 sizes:

Pricing for these will be available soon too.

if you look at the wheel in that ad (which is in the most recent C&D), it says "IMOLA" on it. a quick google search turns up that the Imola wheel is made by Alessio at www.alessiowheels.com. Looking through their online catalog, it might be a chromed version of their Future wheel, but it's hard to be certain.

A thorough Google search :-) shows that Imola Design makes the wheel: it is their Design 21 forged wheel, and they don't list dealers yet... http://www.imoladesign.com/forgedpage.htm
 
Damn, you guys are something. Imola it is. I will research and find out about dealer and if they plan on making it to fit our car.

Doesn't it look like it is on a Toyota MR2 or is it a Boxster, in the C&D pic?

I really like this one.

Thanks

Not a factory MR2. The new one's side intake is much larger than the one in the ad and the old style intake has a fin separating it. I would say Boxter.

I was just looking thru the pics I took of River Run 2001 and came across a pic of an NSX with similar wheels

What's up?


It's for sale, but I still want to keep it. Hard to explain. I promised myself that when I needed new tires, I would change wheels. Although my tires still look great, they do have 6K miles.
