Agreed the stockers are good looking. I dont think there are a lot of rims for the STI that "Fit" its look. I also think just about anything Subaru offers for the STI, S204 etc are hot. To each their own.. I wanted 18s though!

i love my stockers painted black of course with my red lip. i think the 18inch 2 piece are a waste of time and money why get heavier rims

no doubt they are nice for a stock rim, but I like 5-6 spoke rims - I WANNA SEE THOSE BREMBOS!!

That aside, my summer rims are 17x8 +48. When I go back to the BBS's in the winter, they're a little too tucked for my liking with the +52.

Cleaning = sucks
BBS stock = yum

I agree they should be 18's though.

I love the stock wheels, I love them even more for track or autox use

When it comes to bling, everyone has their own style. When it comes to functionality, you'll find most budget minded owners using the stockers to the fullest.

Stockers are great but some people like to be alittle different.

I just bought another set of OEM wheels-they are gold. I am gonna either have them painted or powdercoated solid black. I can't wait!
