Looks awsome on white! Love the color combo.

***Rewind*** · 03-03-2008, 11:07 AM

Both of those color combo's look great! White looks so good.

sti-06 · 03-03-2008, 02:03 PM

looks good but why so skinny tires?

How dark is your window tint?

ret030 · 03-03-2008, 03:31 PM

Love the first pic... I would have stayed with gold... that is the car i want!! both look good though! Nice car!

One of my favorite AW 06 STi on the board.

Pastapuck · 03-03-2008, 04:25 PM

Awesome

UltimateLurker · 03-03-2008, 05:34 PM

Very nice. Excellent look to the wheel IMO.

MaxD · 03-03-2008, 06:09 PM

Nice, you probably dont ever need to clean your wheels now lol.

KiR DieseL · 03-03-2008, 06:42 PM

I usually don't like what people replace the stockers with but these are sexy

thanks for all the positive feedback guys, i'm really happy with the way the car looks now, the white/gold was just growing old on me being that my old bugeye was white/gold, then this car, that's 3+yrs of that color combo, time for a change

as for the tire size, i really would have loved to go wider but 18in tires are so freakin expensive, especially when you step up to 255 (which is what i wanted) these tires were already over $600 shipped and they'll be lucky to last this year, that'd really suck if they cost 2x that, they dont make this tire in the size i wanted, i may go 245/40 615 next time around, who knows, hard to say since these tires have all of about 7miles on them so far

edit, missed the window tint Q, got them done at zebart, they were advertized around 17-20%, state trooper told me they were 11% and gave me a $75 ticket for them lol
