I love bargaining. $2700 shipped for a set of these with a set of 215/35/R18 Bridgestone Potenza RE750's mounted, balanced and air removed for easy TPMS transfer. Job done .

The wait time on these is about 8 weeks mate so the soonest I'm expecting delivery is the beginning of September. I'm afraid the pics will be a while.

Oh ok. Will try to be patient then.

BTW, did you manage to find out the centre bore size of the Advans?

No sorry. I know he threw in a set of centering rings and nuts so they'd fit properly.

Cool! Look forward to it.

What colour did you op for the wheel?

Hyper Silver, looking forward to it myself, have a feeling those big red Brembo's are going to look very nice indeed tucked in behind these.

Nice to see the contrast between your AB and the Hyper Silver.

I've actually been considering those wheels, but recently i changed my tires to Toyo T1R. So it would be a waste of money to change them again just for the Advans. Will wait till my next tire change.

I was considering the browze or dark grey.

I'm definitely eager to see these! I may be next in line

Unfortunately, my JCW calipers/rotors are gonna look teeny behind these wheels!

Your OEM R56S brakes are the same as his R53 JCW brakes. They're the exact same brakes just his are red and yours are not.

Sweet rims and I thought the Volks were expensive. How is the weight?

Hey guys haven't been on for a while. Wheels arrived in late October just too late to go on the car. They've been sitting in a coat closet in my apartment for 3 months now, I'll probably put them on some time in late March or early April. I can take some pics of them without tires if anybody wants? Oh and by the way they weight less than 16lbs each.
