Hard to tell from the pix, but I think the car will look sunken when you drop it, so get STI wheels and call it a day

What wheels are they? I think they look pretty good. Are they 18s? They would look better if they were a tad smaller.

Need a wider rim with a lower offset and/or spacers to get close to flush (not poke or any of that crap).

For how much they are off/needed to fill the wheel wells you will need extended lugs or use the spacers that bolt to the studs and have their own. easiest way is just to measure in MM and go from there.
Regardless, wingless then black, followed with gold.

i still say keep the color they are. and for spacers, maybe a 25mm but it depends on how wide they are now.

Adobe Photoshop CS2. I'm too lazy to use CS3 (which is installed) and I guess there is CS4 out now? IDK. CS2 is good enough for the little I do.

ive been looking at different springs and i have no idea what ones to get. i keep bringing up threads from other sites. and to every brand alot of ppl hate how they ride and alot off ppl love how they ride. i feel like there is no one brand that is better so im confused on what brand to order. Obviously i wanna get as low as i can without having a ****ty ride.
Suby owners shed any light on to which brand you prefer and why?
thanks
