Hey Creo...how difficult is it to clean those REs? I'm not a big fan of cleaning the stock BBS wheels, but the REs don't look as much a pain in the butt.

It'll still be a bit tedious to clean the REs, as there are multiple spokes to clean. I can't give you the difference between the stock BBS wheels and these (I sold them shortly after buying my STi almost two years ago)... But with the dark grey refinish and Carbotech Bobcats, I don't really notice brake dust anymore.

ese, my STi is an '04.

Thanks, Ese.

Actually, my photographic eye has been in practice for the better part of two decades. . . it's the fact that I almost never get to borrow my friend's Nikon D70 that means you all seldom get to see the pictures in the ways I originally intend. But thanks for noticing, all the same.
