Just wanted to give a shout to Terry @Maximal for the great deal and show off a little. :p but besides getting a great deal on these(18x8.5) I got them in super quick too. Ordered them on a Monday and got them in on a Wednesday. Couldn't ask for more. These just seem like they were meant for this car.
here's some shitty cel phone pics. had to pull it in the garage ASAP because I heard thunder and the clouds were coming. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() no wheels here. I just like this pic of the car in the garage with my nifty Warsteiner banner. ![]() ![]() p.s. yes I know. I've got to lower it. that'll happen after the warranty is up

+33. they stick out a bit on the front. nothing a little lowering and camber won't fix. the rear is perfect.
I copied another members car @shiumai and his setup looks 10 kinds of awesome. I just didn't stagger mine. |

lowering will not affect any part of your warranty, you will have warranty on your new coils/springs - balances out no?

If you get springs, yes, you will wear your struts out a little prematurely (could always get TRD/STI struts)
control arms, only if you slam

yeah, I'm not going to slam it. I was thinking TRD/STI struts and springs. not sure the best place to go for that though.

But anyway, For struts/springs just go to one of those websites that sells toyota/subaru parts at discounted rates. You'll likely find the best deal there. |

They are offered in 18x9.5 but i find that to be just a little too much tire for my stock car. Haha as if 1x.5 will make much of a difference My ideal size would be 17x9 with a lower offset. 17x9 high 20's-low 30's offset is my dream size right now but that's not available in most cases cause of our god awful lug pattern. I have come across so many great deals on iconic 5x114 wheels as of late as well :/ Also tires are gonna be a little less expensive at this size along with the actual fitment of the wheels. A spacer up front should suffice till a better size appears. Until im more financially stable to afford some custom sized wheels ill make this size work
