Yes. Also, good to see some of them coming back to the platform. There will be builds in several types of categories, from aesthetics, to DD and mild track. Waiting for a full track build to come too.

The style of them is OK, it’s the piss yellow colour that’s the problem. Should’ve went bronze or a silver.

They're real bad and they're real proud of how they ape an M2. Very weird stuff.

I mean, I've got bronze OZ Legerra HLT wheels on my 2020 Outback XT touring.....

Is that not what these are?

I think it looks off because of the high contrast blue and in your face gold. Blue and gold certainly go well together.. and while the shades on that 86 are not a typical combo, They do sit well together. Both pop hard to the eye but they dont rob attention from eachother. If you look at the gold you can ignore the blue..vice versa.

I think that's why they went with those colors to begin with, It's bold and in your face. Really notice it on the track. I've seen neon green wrapped cars with hot pink wheels, furbies hanging from passenger visor with huge anime chick vinyls with abnormally large breasts covering the car so low to the ground it causes massive traffic congestion because the car got stuck on the dip between the road and a manhole cover.... While not everyone's taste, Eye of the beholder and all.

Agreed, blue and gold match well together. Subaru has held up that tradition for a long time because it works. It's definitely a personal preference though, very much so when it comes to wheel color combo's. Anybody should be able to obviously tell that the contrast in that image is SIGNIFICANTLY off.

Even without the contrast being off, the Neptune Blue on the GR86 doesn't really work with gold wheels IMO.

Darker blues like the WR Blue, Turino Blue, Sapphire Blue, etc look good with gold wheels and carry on the Subaru trandtion from the really cars, but that pale baby blue-like color is a different story. I'm not sure what color wheels really go with that type of color. I know it's a popular color on some cars, but it just doesn't do anything for me.
