I personally think the RS-GT looks better but what do you think would look better overall. (White STI)

Baller rims!

If you are gonna spend 4k plus on wheels why not bump it up in size... plus you got an 08, those things can swallow 9.5 inch wheels with little work(depending on offset of course). Just think how much more aggressive your STI will look with a wider set up. Just my 2 cents.

19x9.5 would be so nice in the DB with polished lip.

you are a ricer, you start stupid threads ($100 says he was just about to start a thread on what street glow lights would look "sweet") about parts that wont even fit your car all because they have burnt tips and cost all the cheddar in your savings account. Do us a favor, sell your STI, take the money, put it into Tomos scooter company stocks, i heard they are doing well. kthnx
