according to EAS...
the advan rs wheel has two coats of paint while the vmr v701 has one coat of paint + one coat of powdercoat clear. which is better? isn't a powdercoat typically superior to paint (in general)? does anybody here have any long-term experience with advan wheels? how does their finish compare to vmr's?

Trust me Advans are really hard to scratch or damage in general, I have advans on my car and the paint quality is the best I ever see in wheels.

btw my finish has held up perfectly, and i only have the slightest of cosmetic bends on the outer lip of one of my wheels due to hitting quite possibly the worst pothole in all of chicago. 1000X better quality than my ssr gt3's on my old m3. |

Do you have RSs on the E86? If so, do you mind posting pics?

found these... i choose not to comment on the rest of the car, but the advans look good IMO...
these certainly look huge in comparison to the tiny brakes, 18's are absolutely the way to go for the non-///m.

what was that?
sorry, i couldn't hear over my wife snorting laughter in my general direction. i'm pretty sure you said "18's are the perfect option because there's no way in hell you're getting that kind of money from me to put into that car! you silly little man!", but i could be wrong.

Turns out the wheels they had in stock were sold, so I'm now wondering if I should go Silver or stick with Gunmetal (Silver is $400 more sigh...)
I'm getting 18"
