Advan RGII by Yokohama wheels company

 

Nice . Any spec?

 

good to see a mini owner who values a fine wheel

 

Nice. Is the MINI in the photo wearing those shoes? Please post specs. Thanks.

 

17x7.5 +41 offset

 

Those are SSR comp!

 

SSR Comps are great. So are the 17 x 7.5 Yokohamas going to be your street wheels? Fancy footwear. Also, is your MINI flat grey in color? Thought I would throw in another question while I am asking. Thanks again.

 

I replaced my SSR with those fancy RGII.

 

Where did you get those?

 

The wheels werent made for Mini, I need to custom a set of center rings in order to fit them on the car.

 

HOw much do they weigh?

 

I was curious too.

Found these weights:
"Weight of the 17s and 18s, 16.5 and 17.5 respectively."

Dunno if that is the same width however.

Also the search yielded interesting info on combination of cast and forged:
"The Advan RG2 marks Yokohama’s newest entry into the tuner wheel market. 'Using a flow-formed process, the center of the wheel is actually cast while the outer rim section is spun formed. Lighter than conventional casting and almost as strong as a forged wheel, Advan went with a longer, more dramatic, spoke design over its predecessor and cast a 3D logo in-between the spokes' preaches Eddie Lee of Mackin Industries (official North American importer of Advan Wheels)."

I won't speak to the accuracy of the info but included the threads for context.
