Hey guys, I'd like an opinion. What do y'all think of the Avantgarde M310 wheels? I was actually thinking of copying this exact settup:
Avant Garde M310 Deep Purple!

INNOVATE_1 · 09-07-2011, 03:02 PM

Thanks Jordan!

The wheels look great but not feelin' the color so much..

Boost_lee · 09-08-2011, 02:10 AM

Nice wheel, but not so much on the color. To pull those off Jordan, you would need the stanced look. IMO, I just don't think loud colored wheels work as well with a functional stance (unless its a full race car). If thats the look you are aiming for, then it would be pretty nice

I vote for them in black or flat gunmetal.

Splinter · 09-08-2011, 06:45 PM

I think the wheels look good but not something I would personally choose. if I really wanted purple it would have to be something darker like black cherry. It'll be different for sure, I know people with black cars are tired of the full black out look.

Boost_lee · 09-10-2011, 04:22 PM

Anything going on this weekend?

jordan3720 · 09-10-2011, 10:17 PM

I actually would be dropping the car with whatever wheels I get. I particularly liked that color after I saw the photoshoot with those wheels on the black genesis they just posted. I originally wanted to do a red accent color scheme (emblems, interior stitching, seats, etc.) but I think this purple could have a lot of potential. as manuel said, the blackout look is nice, but everybody has it.

I think it'll be another quiet weekend. Saw an older gentleman in a base magnetic black with FI exhaust tonight tho, lol

I found this as a potential setup as well, unfortunately I know nothing about offsets on our cars. If these look good on a 350, how would they fare on my car?

Really depends on your drop...

You might be able to look fine with the fronts as is, but you can run a 5-10mm spacer.

Rears would need a 10-20mm spacer depending how flush you want. I would try a 20 since he is running a 275 tire.

Geeze I haven't had much time to stop by the forums lately to read what's going on. Add me to the list.

the Leonine - Eric - Mag Black - Touring/Sport

Work schedule is hella crazy, but I'm sure I'll make it out to a meet some day.

Splinter · 09-14-2011, 01:49 PM

nice welcome dude, check back every now and then, we don't meet often due to out schedules so it takes some organizing lol

sstevens7 · 09-27-2011, 01:30 PM
