Question Need advice on ADVAN

Does anyone have some info. or PICS of the ADVAN Connoisseur wheels? I'm looking into buying a used set but, don't know anything about them. I believe Advan is made by Yokohama in Japan and are kinda expensive to buy new, although I could be wrong. The Advan model I'm looking at are: No. 51C (five spoke) not the 15 spoke rim. Also, Advan rims doesn't seem to have a deep lip on the rear rims, right? Also, what offset do I need to clear the Brembos? Anything will help, thanks in advance.

I considered the Advan Connoisseur 51C for my Sedan a while back. I was quoted from $3500 to $3800 with Nitto 555. I decided against it because I felt they were overpriced and difficult to get if something goes wrong with one of the wheels.

They don't have a lip and I don't believe they will clear Brembos. They have the perfect offset for the sedans in staggered and non-staggered set ups.

Here is a link so you can see the applications available. You might want to call Makin and ask them.
