They do look fantastic though.
Bummer dude! I'm pretty sure they'd fit since they fit on wrxs (I think) but I can understand tirerack's reluctance to special order something that might be returned. Maybe try Speedline 2118's? They are similar. Anyways, good luck and make sure to post up pics of whatever you decide. I'm sure others will be interested in 15s in the future.

They would look RAD. Wheels are worth the splurge. Especially for hot ones like thems.

Sadly, I do have a finite budget. Those Compomotive wheels are already seriously pushing my bank account, so much so that I may just go with some Tire Rack wheels instead of some vintage style goodness. I'm still hoping to pick up those 16" Compomotives, but the Watanabe wheels are simply too much.
