Black wheels, white car...can never see what the pattern is. Looks like 4 donuts from a distance.

I bet they are nice though, I like BBS.

I want these but BBS are sooo pricey. Where do you find them?

niceassfd · 06-15-2012, 01:07 PM

it does look like donuts from far away. but bbs are awesome wheels so they probably got it for the specs, not looks.

These are OEM Factory Subaru Option Wheels...originally were silver...they have been around the block a few times...as I traded a set of Gram Lite gold 57's for them.. Black wheels are sorta my trademark...sorry you can't see them.. with tires they weigh 38.4 lbs...vs. the stock 41.5 lbs with the michelins..

those are really nice tires! i have a set of 18's. re01r's. Imma put them on my enkei's.

did you swap the tpms sensor's?

Are those heavy tires? I thought it would be more like low to mid 30's. From that angle it looks like they need to be stripped and respray painted with better paint and more patience. Not trying to be rude, I spary paint all my wheels at some point, it just takes some time to do it right.
