1. First - RS-D Staggered // Second - RS Staggered. I personally do not care for the look of the RG.
2. 18"
3. Flat Black or Matte Bronze/Gold

I'd like to see some semi-agressive offsets as well. 18x9 Rear +45 or +40 and 18x7.5 or 18x8 +40 or +45 front would be awesome. Hubcentric with no rings!

18" Staggered RS-D's with a decent lip in Flat Black...I'd buy.

Thank you for your feedback. It seems that the RG-D is a popular option as I suspected.

Regarding current available - yes, I am aware of putting existing 8.5" wide wheels on the front and rear, however, with staggered tire sizes that is a compromise affecting the seating of the tire on the wheel - both impacting aesthetics, but more importantly performance. We are looking to offer an optimum no compromise solution.

Please keep your feedback coming - Yokohama Tire will be using this information to judge interest and your feedback is important.

cheers,

Luckily I have overfenders and have a 17x9 + 29 on the back

I think the sizes currently offered work for most all owners (at least for the RS).

I would strongly recommend an 18" 10 or 10.5" width non staggered set-up. It would be the fastest track set-up.

I have 18 x 10.5s and needed lots of front mods to fit, no rear mods. 18x10s should fit with much less mods in front.

Advan T-5
18"
Chrome finish! Or silver or even flat black.

I have the old Model 5s in 17" nonstaggered but maybe I'd trade up for 18" staggered.
