Advan Racing TC-4 Umber Bronze Metallic & Ring Wheel (17×8 4×100 +35)
The Advan TC-4 represents a contemporary interpretation of the classic 5-spoke motorsport wheel design. These wheels, created using advanced flow forming technology, exhibit a substantially reduced weight when compared to traditional cast wheel designs, all while delivering significantly enhanced strength to withstand the demanding conditions of racing, even on rough and uneven tarmac surfaces. Advan’s engineering team has expertly integrated deliberate weight reduction strategies within the spokes, effectively shedding precious ounces without compromising the wheel’s structural integrity. This reduction in unsprung, rotating mass translates into heightened agility and an improved ride quality, particularly when compared to heavier cast wheels.
Features
- The TC-4 wheel introduces a complete 5-spoke design that encompasses the entire face, departing from the conventional GT wheel aesthetics. With elongated spokes, a feature uncommon in GT wheels, the TC-4 introduces a fresh and robust visual appeal
- TC-4 wheels feature strategic side cuts exclusively at the base of the spokes and their outer ends, maximizing strength through meticulous strength analysis. This ensures the benefits of lightweight construction without sacrificing the visual balance between the width and height of the spokes
- Initially debuting with 18-inch wheels, the TC-4 now offers an extensive lineup ranging from 15 to 18 inches. Within this range, 18-inch wheels present three distinct face designs: standard, GTR, and Super GTR, while 15-inch to 17-inch wheels feature two face options: standard and GTR
- The TC-4 is available in four captivating colors: “Racing Gun-Metallic,” resembling a dark silver shade; “Black Gun-Metallic,” showcasing an almost glossy black finish; “Umber Bronze Metallic,” closely resembling a bronze-alumite appearance; and the vibrant “Racing Candy Red”
- Introduced in 2019, the “Racing White Metallic & Ring” is a new color option. This freshly developed white hue incorporates subtle metallic elements for a cool and contemporary appearance
- The ADVAN Racing logo is intricately cast on the rim between the spokes, with letters exceeding 1mm in height. Following the painting process, the letters undergo surface treatment to enhance durability. The TC-4 also includes special spoke stickers featuring the new TC-4 logos, further enhancing its visual identity

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.
Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only.

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well.
For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at
