Cost was a factor. New wheels+tires were well under a grand, and only about $200 net after I sold my stock set. There aren't many OEM Subaru 17" 48 offset wheels that look better than XT stock rims. I was looking for a set of 2008 Forester XT Sports rims (enkei, STi branded) but nothing showed up on forum classifieds. I have S4 18" rims on my other car - A3 TDI - the XT now looks just as good.....and is a whole lot more fun to drive (would swap the A3 for a BRZ in a heartbeat, but not enough space for carseats and kid paraphernalia).

One bonus of BRZ rims - they look great spinning on a dyno.
