Lightweight Advanti 17x8 (4x108) Wheels

[PCA-1]

True, but out of all the other companies YHI manufacturers wheels for, Advanti is their own. If they are interested in growing the brand, they might jump on it. Also the FiST, and Fiesta by extension, is EXTREMELY popular over seas so it would be to their be to their benefit to tap into a market that isn't fully penetrated yet. Especially in the lightweight flow formed wheel area.

16x8 4x108 ET42-48 <=16 lbs, <$150/wheel would get A LOT of interest around here...

I know I'd buy the 16x8s without second thought no matter the color.

I'd like an HS legal wheel 16x7" +40.5mm or +42mm offset.

Many would, and there are several HS-legal options already available (ET 42 14.7lbs Ultraleggera, Enkei J10 ET42 16.7lbs and ET42 17lbs Sparco Assetto just to name a few. My 16x7 Maxxim Winners (16.6lbs) are just barely HS ineligible due to ET40 offset)

I want something different than what everyone else has. I'm a special snowflake...

I'm thinking I might get a set of Braid wheels custom made in 16x7 +40.5mm offset or if we can get Enkei to build HS legal RPF1's, I'd go that route.

In all reality, I'll probably end up with cheap Sparcos.

I have not looked at the rules recently, so, are the 215/45-16 Rival Ses H/S legal on 16x7s of the correct offset, or are we required to stay on 205s??

THANKS, and it sits perfectly with those slightly taller tires on it, as well as taking a little of that 1st and 2nd gear wheelspin tendency out of the overall gear ratio!

You can run larger section width tires but there aren't too many choices.

From what I've been told from a credible source, a 205/50-16 RE71R on a 7" wide rim measures out to a 215 width since tirerack.com measured it on a 6.5" wheel.

Yes, that would probably be a better choice anyway, even if it were narrower than the Rival S, since that tire is generally known to be a bit stickier than the BFGs anyway.

I might just do the same, even for the street, since that tire is also taller yet than the 215/45 Rival S, which is what I WANT! (But sadly, it is a pound heavier than the Rival S in 215/45-16 )

Wait, is that paint all cracking and peeling off?

If you're referring to these pics Alpha, I'm pretty sure thats grease from the mounting of the tires on the wheels.

Wheel lube for installing the tires. It washes off.

Oh okay that's what I had thought and then the one picture made it look like the paint was damaged.
I'm still planning on getting these...I just wish I could get them in a deep matte bronze.

Wasn't there a big thread about the heating process weakening wheels and voiding warranty on most?
