A6 or R6? I'm assuming the R6 to make the journey. I've driven R-compounds on public roads and it's an exercise in concentration. I'll see ya there, Myles!

They are 18x8. I don't think an 18x9 would fit with that high of an offset.

^^Maybe so their cars look different from every other STi? That and different sizes and offsets allow you to run different sized tires. Not to mention the stock BBSs aren't all that light, there are lots of forged wheels (and even some cast) that are much lighter and just as strong. But other than that, I can't think of any reason
