Advanti Racing 79G Storm S1 Wheels – Lightweight Cast Aluminum Rims in Matte Grey & Anthracite
The Advanti Racing 79G Storm S1 is a precision-engineered cast aluminum alloy wheel designed for compact and sport car enthusiasts who demand style, performance, and everyday reliability in a single package. Available in Matte Grey, Anthracite, and Gunmetal finishes, the Storm S1 delivers a sharp, motorsport-inspired aesthetic that transforms the look of any front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive platform. Whether you are upgrading your daily commuter or building a dedicated track day machine, the 79G Storm S1 is engineered to impress.
Cast Aluminum Alloy Construction – Lightweight and Weather Resistant
The Advanti Racing 79G Storm S1 is manufactured from high-quality cast aluminum alloy, a material that provides an excellent strength-to-weight ratio for modern compact and sport vehicles. Cast aluminum resists corrosion naturally, meaning the wheel will not rust or degrade in wet or salted road conditions — an essential property for year-round daily drivers. At approximately 15 lbs for a 15x9 fitment, the Storm S1 is significantly lighter than comparable steel or low-grade alloy wheels, reducing unsprung rotational mass and contributing directly to sharper steering response, better fuel economy, and improved ride quality over varied road surfaces.
- Cast aluminum alloy: High strength-to-weight ratio for performance and efficiency gains
- Corrosion and rust resistant: Weather-resistant construction ideal for year-round use
- Lightweight design: Reduces unsprung mass for improved handling and fuel economy
- Available finishes: Matte Grey, Anthracite, and Gunmetal to suit any vehicle colour scheme
Rim Specs – Sizes, Offset & Bolt Patterns
The Advanti Racing 79G Storm S1 is available in 15-inch and 17-inch diameters with a range of widths spanning 15x7, 15x8, 15x9, 17x8, and 17x9. The wheel is drilled exclusively for the 4x100 bolt pattern with offsets between +25mm and +35mm, and a center bore of 73mm. This fitment profile is specifically designed for the large family of compact and subcompact cars that use the 4x100 bolt circle, making the Storm S1 a direct bolt-on upgrade requiring no additional hardware or modifications.
Advanti 79G Storm S1 for Sport Compacts & Light Off-Road Use
While the 79G Storm S1 is primarily at home on sport compacts and hot hatches, its robust cast aluminum construction also makes it a capable upgrade for small SUVs and crossovers running a 4x100 bolt pattern. The corrosion-resistant alloy holds up well on light gravel, forest roads, and unpaved surfaces, making it a smart choice for drivers who occasionally venture beyond the tarmac while still wanting a wheel that looks great in the city.
Compatible Vehicles – Advanti Racing 79G Storm S1 Fitment Examples
The 4x100 bolt pattern of the 79G Storm S1 makes it one of the most broadly compatible wheels in the compact car segment. Popular direct-fit applications include:
- Volkswagen Golf / GTI (Mk3, Mk4): The 4x100 bolt pattern and +35mm offset of the Storm S1 is a factory-spec fitment for the Mk3 and Mk4 Golf and GTI platforms. The 15x8 or 15x9 sizing with Matte Grey or Anthracite finish pairs perfectly with the GTI's sporty character.
- Honda Civic / CR-X (1988–2000): One of the most popular sport compact platforms worldwide, the EF, EG, and EK Civic generations all use the 4x100 bolt pattern. The Storm S1 in 15x8 or 15x9 provides an aggressive stance that suits both daily drivers and track-ready builds.
- Mazda MX-5 Miata (NA & NB, 1989–2005): The lightweight, rear-wheel-drive Miata is a natural match for the Storm S1. The 4x100 bolt pattern and the wheel's low weight complement the Miata's renowned balance and handling precision, while the motorsport-inspired finish enhances its sporty roadster image.
