My 2014 flawless WRX wheels and 235/45/17 Michelin Pilot Super Sports were about $1100 all said and done, or $600 if you consider what I sold my stockers for.

It's a cheap, OEM looking setup with a ton more grip.

Get spacers, coat the mating surfaces with copper or some other Permatex anti-seize to reduce galvanic corrosion issues. This will be a very good setup. Run some good tires and take off the spacers when you track. If you want nice wheels, save up. The quality of wheels goes up when your budget increases. :thumbsup:

How do people feel about replica or knockoff brands? I want the xxr 527/530 forget which one, but i dont want to get made fun of.. Just like the stupid north face jackets or jordans, someone gets a "fake" one and people go nuts. -____-

Keep an eye on the for sale thread for wheels/tires on this forum. You can get really good stuff for a good price. I got lucky myself and got a killer deal on my setup (tires included)...

search other forums' classified also. Tons of used wheel/tires at good price.

That is purely personal preference. While we truly push for the good stuff, it's out of our hands when people go for the other stuff.

Meh .... They're cheap , and if you bust them ,you just need to buy a replacement one for cheap . I have HREs on my other car , they bends too and to replace the lips or barrel will cost you the same as the new xxrs set.

So it's depends on how comfortable you reach your pocket for a set of wheels

IMO, Don't care what ppl says about your car man, it's yours ... If they talks shit about it , more or less theyre jealous.

Most wheels are a downgrade in performance compared to the stock wheel. Just something to keep in mind...
