That is indeed the flat black. The tires are 225/40/18. Let me know if you want any other pics. I took a ton today.

Mooore pics please!

Also, 1" drop?

TRobb · 11-14-2013, 08:53 PM

No drop yet. I was going to get the pro kit since it looks awesome and takes some front poke away, but I don't hate the height and poke as much as I thought I would. The third pic is the front poke. Let me know if you want more specific pics.

@TRobb I like 'em. They look kinda stealthy against WRB.

Thanks! I was really torn between these and bronze. But I hadn't seen any Flat blacks on WRB.

I'm looking at some Chromium Black 17x7 530's. Will be fitting some 215/45R17 PSS's or S-04 Pole Positions (I think) eventually. And I do plan on eventually getting them powder-coated something approximately close to World Rally Blue.

Thoughts? Aiming for a balance of performance and looks.

I've been looking for a much lower profile centercaps for the XXR's that would look like OEM STI's but couldn't find one so i just thought I custom make one myself......

So i got this from ebay...but somehow its the last one.

And then I ordered this too....

There is a 2mm gap around it since the sticker is smaller than the cap, but its barely noticeable once you color the gap in black. If the seller doesn't reproduce the caps anymore maybe I could make a mold of mine and sell it. Just need enough people interested to make it happen.

Hachiroku14 did we just become best friends?

I can't believe you beat me to this post!

I however stuck with the supplied center caps and think it turned out great! Had to do a little shaving and add some of my own emblem adhesive but I'm very happy with the quality of these!

How did you get these and what adhesive did you use?

Hachiroku14 · 11-16-2013, 06:06 PM

Awsome! yes you can also use the xxr caps and those stickers. But somehow i find them too tall for my taste thats why i searched for the low profile ones. Somehow it seems to retain the wheels concave look (just like when you dont have the centercaps on). just my 2 cents!

and I just used a little 3M trim piece adhesive.

There are a lot of 55mm emblems that you can use for those center caps but you may have to trim 1/10mm to make it perfect.

Here's another example of something I was considering
