ADVAN RGIII. but i would choose the 57C6 if i had to get one of them purely on financial reasons.

I figure anything over 1500$ you might as well get the lightest ones. If you're spending the money just spend it. On a side note... isn't +45 gonna leave a big gap? Not huge but there? Dunno, something to think about

Wouldn't get either sets for that kind of money. Other wheels can be had for significantly cheaper, and significantly lighter

RGIII hands down... I was always a fan on the RG Series especially the gold ones.

I like that matte slightly textured gray finish of the Gramlights better.

Que? What kinda gap we talking about here? Thigh gap? I thought that was a good thing?

Oh it is but not too much. I just got 8.75s at +35 and I have maybe 3/8-.5 between my fender and wheel. The sizes mentioned were a little wider but with a higher offset, thought the gap may be a little bigger. Though I have -3.5 camber up front and I didn't do much math, just guesstimated when comparing those mentioned to mine

Advan. Purely on look. Though, for the money I'd get Wedssports tc105n 18's.

The lightest ones possible. If they are heavier then stock then forget it. Also the wider you go the heavier your rubber also becomes so keep then in mind when calculating total weight. If you dont care about performance or feel ignore me.

The GL 57C6 are out of the picture for that reason. I have added Volk ZE40 plus TWS T66-F wheels to my list. Love the concave of the 18x10 ZE40.
