yea, the matte blacks will suffice...

great wheels for the price: ~$1000/set for 17x7.5 and slap on some 225s... they are pretty light as well @ ~17lbs. a piece; can't go wrong if you're digging the design, imo...

I wonder if 16" will fit?!

the car does come with 16" with the base model.. everywhere except NA

I can't decide which one's I want yet. There are too many that look good.

yeah for me now it's just... If I can get my hands on Enkei RSM 9 then I'll do that but pf01 they are like my standard choice, just hard to deside between silver or matte black....likely matte black it looks nice.

5zigen; these are my choices on a white frs

I would love to see that in white with black wheels, or charcoal with white wheels


two color combos I've always loved. Shops are welcome if anyone is feeling crafty :popcorn:

^those wheels look heavy

I'm going relatively inexpensive, but light. So Enkei PF01 in 18x7.5+45 (17.6lbs) and Hankook R-S3 225/40-18 (23lbs). The interesting thing is the R-S3 in 225/45-17 is 2 lbs more.

I'm hoping I can stay about the same weight as the stock rims which means I'll only be gaining 2lbs with the new tires. I was also considering the OZ Aglitteraatilpiterattaa..... rims, but I like the look of the PF01s better and they're only .4lbs heavier.

I was also looking at some sweet Enkei STI rims that were on the JDM STI Legacy, but I couldn't verify the weight and at $200 more per rim I wasn't willing to risk them being over 18lbs.

Volk rims are forged. The TE-37 isn't their lightest rim, but for the size they are one of the lightest and strongest out there. Great rims, but pricy at $700+.

low quality, but an awesome video none the less...

i've had the hankook r-s2 on my sti before... they are a great set of tires at a good value :]

Hey Draco,

You have the nice black STI with Ohlins FPS right? Glad to see you on here.

I wan't overly happy with the R-S2s. They had paper-thin sidewalls and loved to tramline on the road. The R-S3s are looking good because they have RE11 level grip for less cost and less weight (2lbs per tire).

But just a little while ago I stared looking at the Continental ExtremeContact DW tires. I bought a set for my spec.B and liked them as a fun summer DD tire. Turns out that in the size I want, the ECDW is 2lbs lighter than the R-S3. So I could give up a little dry grip for a quieter tire that's cheaper, lighter, and has much better wet grip. At 21lbs, a 225/40-18 ECDW is about the same weight as the stock 215/45-17 Primacy. So I'd be pickup up a lot of grip for almost no gain in weight.
