Looking for OEM Style, Wider
I may be one of the few, but I actually really like the look of the stock wheels. I do, however, need to start going wider.
I'm no wheel guru and I'm having trouble finding OEM-looking stuff on my own (I've looked a fair amount, trust me). Thought I'd do a little ask the audience... Anyone know of anything that at least looks close/similar to our stocks? Not knockoffs, just the same theme. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You're not alone on this. I actually like the OEM wheels as well. If they had them in 18x8.5" I probably would never replace them.

If you really want it, look for a custom wheel maker. There is a place by me that can make custom wheels and I'm sure can make a stock face on a wider wheel, but the cost is high.

Supra people get their stock wheels widened, but as an engineer, that absolutely terrifies me.
Your best bet is the current gen WRX wheels; they look close enough and with some paint work, would be REALLY close. |
