Default Non-Exsisting Advan Rz Wheels

When i bought my s2k it had the Advan RZ wheels in gold. The problem is one of them is slightly bent and i was looking to get a replacement. The specs are 18x8 +33 offset 114.3 bolt pattern. I've searched for these wheels in that spec and there is nothing to be found. The issue is they never made offset that low and i thought it might have been an error somehow so i measured the offset myself and it is indeed 33.

Are these a special order or fake? Ive researched for hours and i have found nothing

Thanks,
Ryan

Maybe post some pictures of the stamps and stickers. Might help these guys figure it out.

Hm. Evasive lists them but it says new so I wonder if there was a version before that came in different sizes.

Do any of the wheels have stickers? They should have stamps on the hub or somewhere with info as well. Pics would help.

From my knowledge Advan does not make that size. UNLESS, a vendor did a 5 set special order batch. But that size doesnt seem too popular. Maybe RSX size?

The RZ is discontinued so it will be hard to get another wheel.

I am leaning towards they are fake though.

Thanks everyone for the input. The wheel is stamped just like a regular Advan and if it wasn't in the weird offset i wouldn't doubt if they were real. Ive even measured the offset myself and still got 33, Ive had the notion that they were fake, but I can't even find fake ones.

Do they still make the same looking face/design wheel in another offset or width? If so just run a staggered offset or width and buy 2 wheels. Problem solved.
