Advan RS vs Breyton GTS-R vs VMR VB3 vs Alufelgen CS7 vs Alufelgen SF-71

x2ms · 12-25-2010, 11:45 PM

After doing extensive research for new wheels, I have Narrowed it down to the following for my BSM 135i.

Advan RS
Breyton GTS-R
VMR VB3
Alufelgen CS7
Alufelgen SF-71

I've created a photo album with pictures that I collected comparing them: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?ai...2&l=e977f6440f (Thanks to everyone whos pictures I used)

Which wheel do you think is the best overall?

And as a secondary question, which do you think is best bang for the buck?

I definitely prefer the more aggressive look and the lighter weight of the Advans if you don't mind the price. But I think you'll need to go with Advan RZ's to get them to fit properly.

CoralRed · 12-26-2010, 11:58 AM

Advans. As soon as spring comes around I am getting a set of RZs. Theyre light and strong plus they look D@MN good!!

SV Concepts III · 12-26-2010, 12:50 PM

This is a pretty wide range of wheels in terms of price and weight, I would do the Advan's hands down if you have the budget for it.

Advan's RZ's

Only a small problem: the cost runs up to around $3k

SiN55 · 12-26-2010, 02:11 PM

Hi didn't ask about cost.

So, Advans is my choice!

scott135i · 12-26-2010, 08:22 PM

Not a fan of the advans....

But, I am biased to the GTS-Rs.... always compliments anywhere I go..

IZAGLO · 12-26-2010, 08:41 PM

Had the Advan's in Dark Gunmetal on my last ride and loved them...they were very lightweight and strong and could tell the difference on how the car handled and it was quicker...Putting heavier rims and oversized tires on your car and they will rob you of quite a bit of power...go light and go faster...makes a BIG difference...and you can feel the difference...was going to 19's but i would rather have 18's and go with the lighter tire/rim setup...

Wait for the Apex AERO-7's. Correct offset, proper widths, and light weight. You can have you cake and eat it too.

I love my RZ's in 18"

Which width/offset do you have? What tires are you running? and is there any rubbing?

Alex67 · 12-27-2010, 09:43 AM

Advan RS

RZ's only come in 8 +45 and 9+50 for the 135i.

I have 225/40/18 and 255/35/18 Yokohama s.Drives and the only rubbing I get is the right rear tire hitting the fender liner when the car is loaded, my suspension is causing it though, not the wheels.

kc_e82 · 12-28-2010, 02:58 PM

I have Advan RZ in 19x8 and 19x9. I love them. I think that they look great and they are really light so they help with performance too. The offsets are perfect at +45 front and +50 rear. I also like the tires better on a 8 and 9 inch because they aren't stretched like a 8.5 and 9.5 inch width would be. I run 225/35 front and 265/30 rear.

GTS-R's for me...love mine

GaryS · 12-29-2010, 09:44 AM

Since you are considering Advans, I think you should also consider these Forgelines from HPA Shop, which will allow bigger tires.

Any fender mods? Do you think you can fit 235s in the front without rubbing?

BTW Advans if you have the money.. this isn't even a fair fight lol...

Zeros and ones · 01-04-2011, 03:33 PM

What about BBS RG-R? 18lbs for front and 19lbs for the back.
