My old set up silver 04 STI BBS wheels (which ill love still)

New set up silver 17x9 Rota torques, offset 30+, Dunlop Direzza Sport Z1 Star Specs tires 215/45r17/87w

Next plans are lower my coilovers a little more and purchase a front lip...tell me what you guys think...thanks

morla · 08-21-2011, 11:40 AM

great choice and a drop and lip sound perfect

Shipman · 08-21-2011, 12:09 PM

They look good, but I really love the STi wheels, but your plans sound great

Teku18 · 08-21-2011, 12:22 PM

Yummy looks good. This reminds me I need to find some options for the Wagon now.

TalonTsi97 · 08-21-2011, 12:25 PM

Plan on getting center caps? I really like the new setup and i thought the stock bbs's looked great on your car.

Looks so good. Thinking about painting them at all?

DPancoast · 08-21-2011, 01:36 PM

Looks good. Don't change the color. Looks great

Supraru · 08-21-2011, 02:30 PM

Looks good. Never was a fan of stretched tires though.

ourbloodykisses · 08-21-2011, 05:09 PM

omg awesome. this could be perfect.

boostedfury · 08-21-2011, 05:23 PM

Wheels look sick I have the same ones! Could you possibly send me some more pics of the tire to wheel fitment because I have 225/45 on mine and might choose 215/45 and your exact tires.

Okay man, thanks for the idea. I'm not sure what i want. Something that's not to flashy, trying to be clean and simple.
Actually using the mudflaps, the tires pick up so many rocks lol

Shipman · 08-21-2011, 08:27 PM

^I had the same problem, my tires were kickin some rocks out too, I had thinner tires on a set of Konig Imagines and I didnt need them, then got MSRs and now they stick out farther than my fenders and I dont want them scratchin my ish lol

hammtheman · 08-21-2011, 08:58 PM

its not flashy at all and the mudflaps are the best thing for when you slam your car, lets you know when you so close to scraping, do you have a skid pan??

Shipman · 08-21-2011, 09:03 PM

^Haha, everytime theres a dip in the road or driveway I hear sccrrrrrraaaappe

jgartland · 08-21-2011, 09:17 PM

John don't put me in your category lol, you're in a whole league of your own. You have to be the lowest forester with the widest wheels in the country....haha If i go as low as you I'm gonna use the 25 mph street sign i have sitting in my house and one up your stop sign and use it as a skid plate.

Shipman · 08-21-2011, 11:10 PM

My girl lives in national park so Im always creepin through WD, I honestly think I saw you like 2 weeks ago going the opposite direction in like woodbury, youre a skinny white guy?
