I was peeking at those this morning. They're also on gumtree.

Advan RS 5x100 17x7.5 + 37 | Wheels, Tyres & Rims | Gumtree Australia Caboolture Area - Burpengary | 1039076829

Not sure if it matters but those Advan RS are reps, if my eyes are not deceiving me.

Oh yeah, there are certainly copies around. A colleague of mine is running reps of these on his DC5 Teg.

My missus Polo TSI is running a real set (there's a pic in the ride height thread), but besides that, the colour looks a bit off, the style of spokes as well looks different. But a couple of big differences is the "Japan Made" stamp which doesn't exists on the real thing, and also the wheel spec is not an official Advan RS spec i.e. you can't get that offset/width combo from Yokohama factory.

The Advan RS are on run out at the moment as well from Japan. So, if you're interested in the real deal, get in quick!

However, the Advan RZ does have "Japan Made" stamped on the wheel, but still not in the wheel spec specified.
