What wheels are these??
 
Slight change of plan with my wheels. Decided not to get mine painted as I wont be happy until I get some 18's on. Came across these pics. Anyone know what the wheels are?. I MUST have them NOW!. This is the look I am after.

The styling and location, i would say it is America, so maybe the wheels are American?

Paint job is one of the chrome effect paints that have become fashionable.

Wheels, not sure, but looks very cool.

Well, I wasn't until I saw that!. I have found out they are Rota GRA's, which are usually bronze. You're right steve, I found it on NASIOC.

Could be worse, could be the Advan Racing RS'.... they are £499 in the UK after import duty etc...

Oh, and that's WITHOUT adding your choice of rubber!

But they are worth it, about half the weight of normal alloys :norty:

You have to pay for quality :nod: so I guess the RG's are a similar price.

These are the Advan Racing RS'

That's why I carry a gangplank around with me and park 2 foot from the kerb :rofl:

And see the photo above, not a kerb or pot hole in sight

Look like Boost Drift

£840 a set, but the offset and width doesn't look scooby friendly.
they reckon they bolt straight on an Evo, but I'm not sure what offset an evo uses as standard.

http://www.rarerims.co.uk/alloys_sub2.asp?id=23

they do do one with a better offset but it only comes in 17's, £500 a set

http://www.rarerims.co.uk/alloys_sub2.a ... &intPage=2

I think these work well at £500 a set 8x18 ET48:
