Yes but they are 16" wheels so not as expensive as a set of 17 or 18" ones. Still a pretty good deal, Hankook RS-3s with 75% tread on them and wheels are completely damage free.

So far, about $2000. Most of that (about $1800) was into audio.

I plan on more.

About $1400 in wheels/tires
About $1400~$3000 in interior & exterior aesthetics (such as changing all the stitching from red to blue via JPM panels, etc)
About $6.5k~$7.5k in performance mods (exhaust, headers, FI, tune, etc)
About $1.5k in suspension

All of this over about a 4-5 year period, I think.

$50 - Project Mu Club Racer Front Brake Pads
$38 - Motul 600 Brake Fluid

$50 - Perrin Lightweight Crank Pulley
$40 - K&N Drop-in Filter

$20 - Perrin Shorty Antenna
$120 - 5% Tint all around
$74 - Grimmspeed License Plate Relocator
$65 - LED Fogs/License Plate LED/Dome LED

= $467 Total

I tracked my car twice. $90 for the first time. My friend paid for my second.

Best $90 spent ever.

I'm looking to purchase RPF1 17x9 +35 & RS3 240/40/17 some time during this summer. That should be around $1600.

That'll be it for this year. Not really looking to mod fast. Next year, it'll be a set of coilovers/suspension bits/Front&Rear strut bars with MCB.

Euro Armrest - $200
JDM Black Interior - $200
JDM Kneepads - $250
Clear bra - $700
Sound deadening - $650
Winter wheels w/ tires - $250
Cover - $250
Detailing stuff - roughly $250
Shift knob - $40
Mud guards - $50
Backup camera - $30
SWCs - $50

Total is around $3k. Wow. Never added it up before. I'm pretty much done, though. I like the exterior and performance as-is. "For when nalc installed the OEM FR-S shift knob, which had red stitching, he wept, for there were no OEM+ interior pieces left for him to buy".

There's nothing major I'm looking at in the future except maybe for OEM Audio Plus.

After spending a ton of money on my old 02 WRX I told myself I wouldn't spend much on the car but I've kinda blown that promise to myself.

I'm probably in the $10K range right now, but that was really to prep the car for STX class along with an extra set of wheels and tires. I've actually gotten good deals on quite a few things and bought parts through group buys or used. I'm done at this point except maybe getting the car tuned locally.

Opticoat $706.28 + Xpel Ultimate Clear Bra (Full Hood) $1637.03 = $2343.31

Investing on protecting paint so far. Possibly drop-in filter and weathertech mats with my tax refund. Tint in the spring.

About 4k. Hopefully I'm done with putting money into this car. I told myself I was going to keep my car stock when I first got it.

Replaced the tips and added bottom spoiler. Keeping everything OEM, as adding other stuff you will never get your money back if and when you sell, and if I wanted to spend more $$$ I would of bought a different car.
