Alright gents on to the next set of wheels... I know I want a 20" wheel with at least a 10 or 10.5 out back but prefer a square set up. Josh can get me a good deal on Avant Garde wheels and like the M550 and M510. I also wouldn't mind used wheels if I came across the right deal. I would like to keep the price as close to $2k for wheels and tires as possible. I would like a dark grey or maybe black again. No silver or chrome. And NO Steve I can not afford your TF wheels Lets hear those Ideas. for now here is my cars best impression of Derek's car without the Jay Leno chin.

What is your budget? Is a set of Velgens out of the question?

I saw those too but they are basically the same as the Avant M510 and the Avant's are cheaper

Nice just posted a pic from AG's Instagram account of the new M580. Looks like a combination of the M510 and Velgen wheel. LOL

Have you looked into some of the Monotec wheels that Niche offers?

I think the actual wheels suggested look good but man they leave a LOT of empty space with the stock brakes. That's one reason I personally wouldn't go with a 20 unless I had a complete BBK system with it.

I am not digging my wheels. I am thinking of running weld RTS setup.

Mine are brushed F14's with some refinishing work from Discount Tire. They did a great job but they aren't perfect. Wrapped in Nitto 555 265 in fron and a Nitto 555R 305 in the back.


I really dont want to sell right now (middle of selling a house) but I would take offers if interested.

He has brembos in the front, so there is not as much room as the non-brembo brakes. Rears are a different story.

These should clear brembos.

Does anyone know what the Avant 510's weigh in 19? 03MachMe, the wheels on the gray car that you posted above, are those 18's or 19's?

Those are likely 19s. Probably weigh around mid 20s.
