They are beautiful. I love Forgeline's wheels.

looks awesome! i have a set of 19 x 9.5 volks with 275/30 dunlop dz101s waiting for my car. 19s are definitely a great size for the new car. i think that if tastefully done, i don't think 20 inch wheels would look horrible. the fender arches are huge. prob with someone doing a 20s is you would have to increase the overall diameter.

The car is not lowered, but I am considering some springs. Thanks again for the compliments.

I do see a Wagner sticker on the rear and think i know who this is since you mentioned you was getting some new wheels. The rims make the car look very clean and more attractive. The more i see the '08s the more i wish i could of gotten and '08 and not a '07.

Very nice. The size looks perfect. And I love the Silver on black combo. It would look even better if the wheels were all black.

I still can't get over how amazing this car looks in silver, especially because the tail lights actually go well with the colour. I think I love silver on this car because it really shows the car's lines very well.

The car looks fantastic and the wheels suit it very nicely.

dunno why anyone would want 19's.....
18's plus springs or coilovers is your best bet. cant wait to see the first sti on dubs.. you know it's gonna happen.... or has happened.
