Yeah - the area under the seats under the car are not structural - so bolting in a set of stainless steel frame rails really adds structural rigidity to the car. I didn't have any hp mods - just...

Rim / tire mod on the cheap?

So, I have no budget for this, so I may end up doing nothing, but here's the situation:

'03 WRX running 7 spoke '06 WRX 17" rims, silver, with 225/45 S-Drives
'13 BRZ running stock.

^^Thanks. I may take an afternoon and swap rims from car to car to see how they look. I'm thinking the BRZ rims may look better on my wagon though I like the '06 rims I have on there now.

Stock WRX rims?

How would stock 17" WRX rims in silver look on a white BRZ?

I'm not crazy about the...
