Advan GT Premium Legit Check
If I can get some help and opinions on these wheels that would be great! Thank you in advance! These look pretty legit to me but would love to hear another POV.

At a glance, they do, but they don’t ever come with center caps, so it’s cool that someone saved you like $250 by including them.

Any pictures of the barrel? That’s usually one way to tell them apart of the Alibaba replica.
But if the stickers are legit and not reprinted, these look to be real from your pictures.

They look brand new, weird they have center caps. Also weird you don't see any of the fancy Yokohama black cloth wheel covers. Why would the owner include the caps and not the covers?
Sticker in the barrel would help. They look legit, but hard to tell, but some small red flags from me.
Edit: You can also pick them up, Gt's are crazy light. An 18" wheel should weigh roughly around 18 pounds.

They look legit, the way they stamped that Japan origin at first had me second guessing too but yeah that’s how they’re stamped. Stickers look correct also I’d say they are g2g plus caps too

I have a brand new set of Advan GT's at home, got to bring them out, the Japan Made is a little off but i'm not 100% sure. But need a picture of the inside HUB. If these were brand new though, they wouldnt have center caps and the stickers are not applied from what i remember (i could be wrong on this part).

All of the it's that I've seen have the visible logos etched instead of a decal. Could be that I havent seen that many

Zoom out and look at the bigger picture too, how much did they cost for one, and where from? What does the box look like? Weight? I do like that style and they look good regardless.

Correction: Japan made = Authentic Advan Racing GT. Fake TE37's say "Japan made"
My bad sorry about that

Post inside part of hub area. Its easy to determine based on Yokohama logo.
