Default ADV Wheels

Anyone had experience with these wheels?

The Challenger caught my eye and I had to do some searching but I found the wheels.

I think the ADV5.0 (Challenger) and the ADV7 (Supra) look pretty good.








Never heard anything about ADV though.

They seriously can't be asking for over 1400 a wheel for two piece rims.

They are all over the higher-end stuff... and are very, very expensive.

They are forged rims and are very lightweight, in the same vein as HRE. Wheels that size and that light don't come cheap. Wheels like Forgestar and BBS are rotary forged, which are light, but not as light as true forged wheels, so they are cheaper. Least that's how I understand it, could be wrong.

Edit: I just looked at the weight database they have on their website and they're not as light as I thought. I have no idea why the ADV.1 wheels are so expensive except that they're a brand name and they're probably well designed.

Good God.

I can buy cars for what it would cost for a set.

Cars. Plural.
