Depends on color of the car and the purpose of it. Id pick the prodrives if you autocross/track or drive your car very aggressively.

I am assuming we are talking about your car - Im not feeling the gold wheels on yellow look. Stick with you prodrives.

Yes sir. Got an offer in the works for a Spoon front bumper and Advan RG2s. Just wanted some opinions.

I am also tempted to paint these, if I keep them to white or gloss black.

Regardless of what wheels you get next, we still have a deal with our front wheels, right?

Get the RGII's, the gold will look great on your spa yellow.

I agree with you but if I get RG2s I would have to order a custom set since I really dont want 18s. I want 17s but then the question is will the top or bottom of the caliper hit the wheel.

I just got a set of GC07's so I pick those . I dont think you can make a wrong decision with your choices. Both wheels are light weight, strong and not on every S2K that you see. If they were RG's I would say go with them. I am not as big of a fan of the RG2.

I really like your current set up I think the proposed set up will be too though.

If your getting tired of the way it looks you could sell me your mirrors
