They look really good on a 5door, congrats on ur purchase! Im rockin the same wheel/fitment on my 04 STi, its a pita to get them to fit, but well worth it!
Yep no fitting those stock. Fender roll had to be done. I like the result. Almost too close to my body color. Dont know yet. I like but amost matches the DGM on the car. Cars with matching color rims..... I kinda like some contrast. Also it being dark and cloudy all the time it makes my car look black.. Hmmmm. Maybe this winter will have to make a color change.
They do look good. I'm the same way and like a little contrast. I painted my wheels though so I'm all good now
Yep they look better on a sunny day. But how many of those have we had lately... I like black rims on a black car and such but not sure if dark grey rims on a dark grey car are working for me. We will see after i tint the tails how that helps.
everyone one i know that has gotten their **** powercoated has complained about how easily it chips, this is true.
just now noticed these pics...looks good, if anything have them powdercoated Bronze...i think thats the best color combo for DGM IMO
No, good powdwercoating is better and more durable than any paint that is sprayed onto a surface... With that said, powdrecoating must be prepped and baked correctly to work. But if its done rite, yeah, its awesome. But also, regular paint usually works good for wheels, its easier, probably lighter, WAY cheeper, and paint and someone to do it is easier than finding powder and someone to do it. Also, I've seen beautiful things produced by rattlecans, spraypainted wheels can look as good as factory paint if done by someone who knows what they are doing! My $.02, dont spend it all in one place bitchez!
Yes its pretty good. There is a guy at tintmasters with a 08 DGM sti with bronze Advans I think. Might have to stop there and check it out up close.
I didnt have much time at tintmasters to check his STI. Good looking car tho. I did walk by an saw what they were nice. I will still think on switching the colors over the winter. These would look great on some cars but just match my paint to close. But it does grow on you. People walk by not car peeps just reg peeps. They stop an stare at it. I think its so aggressive that most cant help but look. The car looks like it wants to eat someones face off. Not kidding some of the old farts where i work love it now. They hate hatchbacks but that thing after they looked at it a lot totally changed their mind.
