Advan RG3 vs. Advan RG2
 
wanted to share....

This is the NEW Advan RGIII in 18x9.5 with the Super GTR Face...

Weight of Advan RG3 in 18x9.5 = 17.65 pounds

Weight of Advan RG2 in 18x10 = 19.95 pounds

Couple of things you will notice between the two:
1. The spoke has a small groove machined into it to shed weight.
2. Spokes are slightly more concave on the RG3's

Let me guess, no 17x9 5/100?

Next up, someone will buy the design of these wheels from Advan for a hilariously high price. Soon after, everyone will realize the wheels have a design flaw that was known from the beginning, but was overlooked due to "hype" in assumption that it would not be a problem. 2 years later, the company that bought the design will fall apart and bench the RG3 while its owner goes through yet another management team.

RG3's in 5x100 are available in:
17x7.5 +50
17x8 +48

18x7.5 +50
18x8 +47
18x8.5 +45 *
18x9 +52 *
18x9.5 +45 **

= Standard Face
* = GTR Face
** = Super GTR Face

Also just for comparison... since many comparisons are based off RPF1's.

We just ordered a set of White 18x9 +45 for S2000 application.

It was a Redskins joke. DC area problems, I guess.

That sounds like Kajo Nick.

I have seen RG3 in person, it looked so good even though it was 18x8.5 +31 with less concave, I imagine 9.5 will look amazing.

Might of been a Redskins joke but it doesn't apply to wheels. Look at how much Rota has paid for the designs :D
