Thoughts?

I'm not in the bidness of making wheels so I couldn't come close to giving you good advice here. My best guess would be to make them as cheap/strong/light as possible. People with enough money to buy BBKs may go with your bigger size wheels anyway.

Happy to hear that you're still working on this. Solidifies my decision to just put new tires on my OEM wheels and wait til next year for new wheels. Please keep us updated

Also interested in a set around this size.

I have the Wilwood BBK that fits under the stock rim, and I am in love with it. I'm planning on grabbing a set of the 17x9 Awesomes to complement them.

from the Mach V website - 56.1mm hub bore means it's hubcentric for any Subaru, no hub rings required.

and they are awesome...so awesome that your friend with a WRX may borrow them while you are under your car playing with things. They did recommend the McGard lug nuts to me when I asked and the dark lugs match the gunmetal wheels, I am pleased they called me and that I had them added to my order.

Am interested if there is 17x8 without ruining the look, like SSR did with their GTV01 (their 18 inch looks betters)

Sorry, but for now we're just sticking with the 17x9. They are in stock in all colors.

Did you know? The Facebook web page color scheme uses blue because co-founder Mark Zuckerberg is red-green colorblind.
