Flow-Formed Technology:
The Advan RG-D2 is manufactured using advanced flow-forming technology. This process applies pressure to the inner barrel of the wheel while spinning, which stretches and compresses the aluminum. The result is a wheel that's significantly lighter than cast wheels while maintaining exceptional strength - approaching the strength of forged wheels at a more accessible price point.
Iconic RG-D2 Design:
The RG-D2 features Advan's iconic 8-spoke design with deep concave face. This design has been a favorite among enthusiasts for years, offering a perfect balance of aggressive styling and functional strength. The deep concave face creates visual depth and a three-dimensional appearance.
Machining & Racing Hyper Black Finish:
The Machining & Racing Hyper Black finish combines machined spoke faces with a dark hyper black background. This two-tone finish creates depth and visual interest, highlighting the spoke design while maintaining a sophisticated, premium appearance. The finish is durable and maintains its appearance even after years of use.
18x9.5 +22 Versatile Fitment:
The 18x9.5 size with +22 offset is a versatile fitment that works on a wide range of vehicles. This spec provides a flush to slightly aggressive stance on most platforms without requiring extensive modifications. The 9.5" width accommodates tire sizes from 245-275mm, providing excellent grip while maintaining good fitment.
JWL+VIA Certified:
The RG-D2 is JWL+VIA certified, which is Japan's rigorous quality and safety standard for wheels. This certification ensures the wheels meet strict requirements for strength, durability, and safety. JWL+VIA certification is recognized worldwide as a mark of quality.
