Your car looks totally awesome. I love the Paint The rims are outragous Advans are the s***!! I love all the carbon fiber extras that you have on.

You have put alot of time and imagination into your ride and it shows. Good Job!!!

I cant wait to see the interior of the car.

To the Haters This is a great example of a good imagination and hard work.

I give you many props man. Please keep up the great work and dont stop.

you haven't seen my interior?? i think there are pics on this site, if not i'll post some soon. It's already totally done. Thanks for the comments

oh yea, i would rather have 1 set of Advans than 7 sets of a knockoff wheel. Wheelmax.com has a clearance section brand new 17's with brand new tires for $499...i can buy about 7 or 8 sets of those with tires for the price of Advans, but what would be the point? i'll stick with mine.

Yeah, but I doubt you'll be taking your car to the drag strip or autocrossing & you'll never see snow living in Miami. I think it just depends on the person. My friend spent $450 each on these wheels for his WRX:

Now that he parted it out (he's selling the WRX to get an EVO), he told me that he thinks he spent way too much on wheels & that next time he'll probably just get some Rotas. I think you made the right choice for your car though.

Another mod to add to the list? This is the funniest post i've seen. Hey MATTHEW please move this post to the humor section, it was posting in the wrong section. I will powdercoat my ADVANS's when somebody buys a s2000 and does an engine swap and puts a geo metro engine in it.

Thank you and have a wonderful day

dude, are you just trying to be an asshole? I don't understand where your flame came from. I wasn't trying to insult your car, I think it looks fantastic. Just because I don't like the Gold on Yellow as many other didn't either, doesnt' mean I think your car is poop. I simply gave you my opinion, that wheels in a different color would look better in my OPINION. besides powdercoating your Advans is not some heinous crime or anything, its just one of the easiest and best ways to color aluminum, the other being anodizing.

Not to belittle you or anything, I understand that you are going for the BIG shows, and that your wheels WILL win you points, but you speak of them as if they are 24K gold or somthing, just because they are made in Japan, and ARE very rare here doesn't make them technologically superior to anything else. Maybe you should just enjoy them for what they are, and not flaunt that to every person who doesn't spend that much money on a set of wheels.

Please understand that I'm not trying to be an ass, anyone who has met me can attest to that, I'm also not a noob, or an idiot, this is not my first rodeo, and I appologize if this offends you. it shouldn't, I'm just suggesting that you tone it down to the other people here. Although I do understand and appreciate your enthusiasm for getting these rare and expensive wheels, please stop flaming me for giving you my honest opinion.

very professionally said.
 
Just a little friendly criticism....If your gonna spend the bean on some Advans, spend 10 bucks on some paint and hit the calipers and rotors. Looking beyond the Advans onto some rusted calipers and rotors detracts from the overall look. Details....it's in the details.

And black definitely would have set it off......but as long as you are happy. :) The rest of the car looks sharp.
 
I am putting on the rear valance this weekend, and Ryan, im talking about my wheels the same as somebody posts saying "look i got my injen intake, yayyy", its the same thing. You are acting like i am flaming people and being an ass about it to everyone else. I think you will be the person i flame because your post was stupid. One time for the rodeo, yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww b****.

I had black wheels before but i hate black wheels. As for painted the calipers and rotors im not planning on doing that, im just changing them when i get the money.
 
Ryan i had no idea what you were talking about, i just scrolled up and read the post i said about you. I was not trying to be an asshole but i think its retarded that you think somebody is going to spend so much on wheels to go powdercoat them, obviously if i bought them its because i liked the color. Would you go buy a red car and paint it blue even though you could just buy it blue? makes no sense. i wasn't being an asshole so if you took it that way sorry. But as for my other yeeeehawww post i was just mad cause i like haters but i don't like stupidity. I didn't like how you said i act like they are 24 karat gold and the belittling thing because like i said before people are the same way when they get a new wheel, or body kit, or turbo. Nothing differnent about me.
 
ok, so you think Im stupid? thats certainly not the case, anyone who has met me can tell you that I'm not.

ok ryan, i will go ask everybody that knows you if you are smart or stupid and i will also survey all the humans in the US. Ok you win, you aren't stupid, you are smart, you want a cookie now? Or maybe a bull for the rodeo?....and i didn't say you were stupid, however your post was.
 
nope its been there for a month, and it seems as if you have a complex about your belongings, and how people feel about them.


I'm not going to post my IQ to prove that I'm not dumb, but I will tell you that the way you are acting is. you obviosly have some kind of problem, I'm not trying to get in some kind of war with you about who's better, frankly I it doesn't matter because I never claimed to be anything, except that I'm not what you are trying to make me out to be.

Besides I think the people of this forum can decide for themselves who is acting "dumb" and who is not. Sorry for messing up your thread, I will now leave it to your nice looking car. have a nice day

Not to be an ass, but his rims actually ARE technologically superior...

They are the 1st (& only to my knowledge) wheels to be constructed using 3 disk overlap design...basically it means they are very strong & very beautiful (the rivets are almost hidden behind the wheel).

I'm sure some people on here had never seen this wheels before he posted them & therefore don't understand why some of us are making such a big deal about them. The easiest way to explain it is to use a simple analogy...

McLaren F1 is to cars as Advan Siena Generation II is to wheels

Just think of how excited you would be to see someone you know get a McLaren & you'll understand our behavior & also why we made a big deal about powdercoating them.

As for YellowBaggedP5 & RyanJayG...I don't think either one of you meant to flame, cause any problems, or call anyone stupid. Both of you have valid points & this is just a case of misunderstanding blown out of proportion.

I see you took the Advan pic from my friends website, at least you didn't take off his name like some people do, then i would've had to call you stupid lol..........i guess that means you already saw the red P5 he featured this month? I was gonna post it up on the site but maybe you can. (unless its already been done)
 
Yes it's been posted.

I didn't know you were friends with Mike. I don't know him, but I went to high school with Jason Siu.

Do you know Rick Suy? He is a good friend of mine & president of the club I was in when I had my old car. He told me that he knows most of the guys from ISS, so maybe you know him. :confused:
