I managed to get a set of rims off New Zealand's ebay equivalent. I paid 95 pounds for them! They're 17" x 7.5" and I'm hoping they're Advan RG's. As you can see from the pics I'm in the process of sanding them to re-spray as the previous owner didn't like them gold...!

Does anyone have a set of Advan RG's? If so, please could you let me know if my pics have the same wording etc... On the inside they say ADRG, hopefully means what I think it does...

Appreciate it.

Bargain! I got a set for £180 once and i thought that was cheap, although mine were still in original white with the advan decals on he rim etc.

Certainly look right IMO. One of the best wheel designs for an impreza.

The shame of doing the bling polished rim on a set of RG's! Good save, now tell me you're keeping the rim lol

Thanks mate, appreciate the pics. They look pretty much exactly the same, but there are some good copies out there. You wouldn't happen to have a pic of the inside by any chance...

Nice brakes by the way!

Thanks allot, really appreciate the pics. I'm still not sure... The indents (where the wording is) are clearly a different shape although the wording is pretty similar.

Are they light or heavy. because mine are light as hell.You could try weighing them and see if they match the stamped weight.Just a thought, would not know any other way to differentiate between copies mate.

The Yokohama 'Y' says they are original
Cant see a replica company going to that trouble.

I've never seen a really good copy, certainly not that close (rota boosts spring to mind but not that close). Any links to replicas that close? Might get a set lol
