not positive on what the advant RG's look like, but do the konig traffics look like it?

Re: Toronto peps: where to get Advant RG looking rims in TO (HoL Lee SHieT)
Thanx Hooo Leee..... but the problem is I'm in Canada so shipping and the taxes would kill me.... and our great Canadian dollar is not up to par either!!! 
You are right though, the Koing Traffic are the look I want. Here is the pic of the rims I'm looking for in the same colour.
I don't mind having knockoff's such as these made by Black Racing and I know you can get them in bronze too!!!
It's just I need a shop that has them here in Toronto..... Canada.
Worst come's ot worst I'll get the C8's in bronze Can't beat the size to weight ratio AND the price!!!

I did.... they JUST got the Advant RG's in black and only in 17" PLUS the guy did not know the price on them since they were so new. I did manage to find the N1-Pro in Bronze and 16" format but they are in BC (www.1010tires.com) I thought I may be able to get something local!

the unpopular BC Auto has Power Racing wheels, which are Advan RG knockoff,
weights at 12 lbs for 15x6.5", very durable wheel
16" is about 14lbs
cost is $200 or so for 15"
black racing wheels are about $250 for 15" wheels (talk to Colin at wheels direct)

Re: Toronto peps: where to get Advant RG looking rims in TO (eg6ajk)
Thanx guys for the info.... here is what I found:
There is a place next to my house that can get the Rota Attacks in 16" BUT they are not sure YET if they can get them in bronze. ALSO, I got a quote from 1010tires.com for these:Black Racing N1 Bronze 16x7 4-100 with 205/45R16 Yokohama AVID H4. Mounted, balanced, taxes, lug nuts and shipping to my door came out to$1760.00 Canadian. Not bad! Now I have to figure out which ones to get the Rotas or the Black racing. I think the Rotas will be a bit lighter then the N1's which are 16.8 lb/wheel.
The Advan RG knockoff look nice but I want them in bronze and 16" and I don't think BC Auto carries them..... plus I heard MANY horror storied about that place.

I finally got to see the Black Racing N1's in bronze.... WOW!!! NICE I must say.... I don't have a good pic of them but once I get them mounted I'll post a pic. The thing is my car is black so if I put black rim's I think it's going to bee too much black.... hence the bronze

The Black Racing N1 Pros are not knockoffs of Advan RGs... they are similar in design, but Black Racing is also an Japanese company I believe.

be aware not for 56k
check with wheels-direct or BC auto (i know BC auto still has a set in bronze and blue)
here is a scan from the brochure that came with the wheel 2 years ago (its 0.5mb)

Re: be aware not for 56k (GEN2TEG)
i had no problems, with Bell Chan, it mostly stands from theiur inability to service the customers properly (sort off this stuck up attitude and god-like syndrome towards white people shopping there)....
over the past two years it has improved, they seem to treat people little better (at least from the surface)
if you got cash, know what you want and are firm then no problems....just bargain, remeber he can do better...
