I have an 2002 Black WRX and im looking for some rims, im just looking for suggestions of what look some of you guys like. Im on a budget so rims + wheels really cant be over 600 bucks so ebay is not out of the question but in general for looks with a black car what do you guys reccomend?
Just got a question, how big of a crime would it be to leave on aftermarket rims in the winter if i washed them often? what about something like this? http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=10824
its no huge deal, as logn as you have some decent tires on em (no summer tires in winter). i know people who get get cheap aftermarkets just for winter. you couold look at rotas (subydude.com) they are cast i believe and are relatively cheap. i like the p45f but 18s are kinda big.
:werd: I left summer tires on my old truck and it wouldn't move if there was 1/2" of snow on the ground. Very stupid of me, I know
Tire Rack seems to think they don't have steelies for a WRX. . . not that they are the end of all sources or anything . . . I guess, I'd been contemplating a similar but slightly skewed question: Dealer sold a sweet car with less that sweet tires. I am thinking I’ll go ahead and roll these til the cold weather. . . stick some dedicated snow tires (question part 1 - what kind of snow tires?) on my factory 16”ers and start saving change for some 17 or 18” wheels to run when it gets warm again (question part 2 – 17 or 18”? question part 3 – is this a rational line of thought or the musings of a whacked out noob?)
look in the mods section for posts on winter tires i made a thread not to long ago. as for th plan it sounds good. 17 vs. 18 really is prefernce although some say 18s are too big, and you might lose performance.
If you are ever interested in Rotas let me know...I can get great deals on them...I'm sure Dizzy will back me up on that...
