Please advice

Hi guys, I am picking new rims for my 03 pure white p5. I've narrowed down to 3 selections

Ro_Ja formula 5

Ro_Ja formula 7

Advan Model 7

The color choice is gun metal for all 3, since I find it very suitable for a white P5. All these rims are very expensive so I better pick a set that I won't regret

Those RO_JA rims are all 2 piece wheels when 18" ++ and 17" is single piece. Advans are single piece only. What size is most suitable you think? I am thinking to go 18x7.5 all around with the advans, or 18x7.5 or 17x7.5/18x7.5 or 18x7/18x9 (afraid this might not fit) with the Ro_Ja's. Please help me select! Thanks in advance!

ps. What's the bolt pattern for the p5? Any tire recommendations?

the bolt pattern is 5X4.5 or 5X114.3.......watch those offsets..those wheels may scrub seeing the offsets so low. Try for something with a +48 offset, harder to find but I guess they are out there somewhere...I like the first ones anyway...Later

unless you plan on some VERY high dollar suspension modifications and or some big fender flares...there is no way you are going to put an 18X9 on our car.....not unless you jack it WAY UP IN THE AIR. and allow the wheels/tires to stick WAY out.

other than that....7.5's will work in 18 or 17's with the proper offsett and tire selection.....7's work a bit better though.

Get the ROJA Formula 7's in 18 x 7 in +42 offset. Those would be great and will not rub with that offset.

That many spokes will look great on the Pro5. With bronze and the polished lip. That'll rock.

Get the Ro_Ja Formula 7. I think those would look the best on a white P5.
