It's fair to say that the Advan GT is up there on a lot of people's list of dream wheels. The iconic fully forged 5 spoke wheel from Japan that looks absolutely killer. The problem though, they are pretty dang expensive. But what if I told you there is another 5 spoke wheel, from the same company, but for much less money? The Advan TC-4 is a flow formed alternative to the legendary Advan GT, and in some cases might make more sense for your build. Let's break down the differences between these two wheels.

The other 5 spoke from Advan that won't cost you a car payment to own. The Advan TC-4 is the flow formed alternative to the Advan GT. The spokes are a bit softer with a lot more bow to the profile which makes room for some big brakes.

Pros
  • Flow Form Construction
  • Brake Clearance
  • Available in Smaller Diameters
  • More affordable than the GT
Cons
  • Slightly heavier due to flow form vs forged construction

Expert Opinion

As much as we love the Advan GT, in most cases the TC-4 makes more sense. If you're looking for something that still shows you know ball, but don't want to worry about going bankrupt if one gets taken out by a pothole or a sneaky curb, the TC-4 is a great option. They still bring everything that makes Advan a great brand to the table with the flow formed construction and overall quality, but at a much more approachable price.

However, don't let that stop you from shooting for your dream wheels if the GT is on that list. Performance wise, the GT is the better option. But that's also why they are almost double the price.
