My daily wheel concept is "if I curb/damage one, getting it replaced without hurting the wallet." but, but, but... these wheels are very appealing.

They don't make the TC-4 in 17's

I have been looking at the RZ2, they make it in 17X7.5 +35. I was looking at the RGD2 but I don't like the thin 6 spoke look.

Actually they do. 17x7.5+50 & 17x8+45... not the greatest


BUT Vivid Racing claim they have 17x8+35


If it’s true, I’m def interested... but $517 per wheel is painful

Pssh, 2 days is nothing. I had 2pots rear Subaru calipers in my shopping card for over a month. lol I also have MPH dry cf roof on my tab on my phone for bout a wk.

3 years ago, someone was selling Advan RCII here for dirty cheap 3yrs ago. It was 17x7.5... so I wasn't sure I wanted em or not. I'm regret not buying them.

I feel you on the appeal of baller wheels. I just can’t justify 2K+ (and really, more than that, since CAD) on wheels.

I need an alignment more than anything right now, but real life is getting in the way

I've never been able to get around to buying new wheels for any car I've owned, ever. I used to change out hubcaps on a whim when that was a thing (I'm talking real hubcaps, not the plastic crap they have now) but can never justify the cost of a new set of wheels.

I think, I bought few different wheels on all my car... correction. I think Evo IV is the only one I didn't, but the rest I bought at least 2 different types of wheels. BRZ have 4 different sets of wheels lol

What makes a $4k wheel better than a $500 wheel? They made of like titanium or something?
