Looking for cheap winter wheels

BillFromTR · 09-24-2006, 12:24 PM

and I stumbled across these. There about the same price as the asa jh3's but I think they look a little better. I already have the 22 45 17 blizzak lm22's, so do you think they'll fit? Any opinions on these?

that's one low offset for a 7" wheel.

What does that mean? They won't clear Brembos? Are 225 45 17 to big for a 7" wheel? I'm a little lost when it comes to wheels and tires and such.

it means that your scrub radius will be off due to the offset and wheel width.

you can get some 17x7s from tire rack for $400.

Here's a link

then select MY05 STi.

That link didnt work cuz it must have your personal info on there. Are you talking about the asa jh3?

**T3h_Clap** · 09-24-2006, 12:46 PM

**T3h_Clap** · 09-24-2006, 12:49 PM

BillFromTR · 09-24-2006, 12:53 PM

no offense bill, kinda lame ride comment you have there

just my humble opinion

scubadiver424 · 09-25-2006, 08:39 AM

and the asas are a good wheel for the winter, run blizzaks and you will be a tank

BillFromTR · 09-25-2006, 02:36 PM

Sorry if my ride yo mama comment offended you. Its supposed to be funny. back on topic, I may just end up getting the blizzaks wrapped around the BBS's, I'm so cheap.
