Am I the only one who thinks the stock rims look the best on our cars? - Page 3

Nothing wrong with the stock rims. They must be one of the best OEm rims out there. The negative side is that they are difficult to clean and they hide the beautiful Brembos. And if they were 18'' it would be nice but at least they are forged.

i agree. the stock wheels look great. thats why i went with the oem ra-r wheels. but i would love to get some te-37's
there are only a handfull of aftermarket wheels that can be pulled off.
it seems that 99% people that put wheels on their wrx have no sense of style. most wheels look like ass on a wrx.

I love the stock rims, but only in silver.

i love mine if they would have made them in an 8" wheel in 04 i would have no desire to change them

i thought the same about the stock wheels... until i found out that they weighted almost 20lbs, a +4 heavier than the 04's (which i know couldn't be helped moving the studs outwards).

meh, don't get me wrong. i like them, but give me some less hefty wheels.

Stock rim is the best looking wheel for the STi IMO. It's not perfect though... it could have less offset and an 18" would be nice. Went to the autoshow and saw the 06 WRC car... I was drooling over the 18" OEM looking BBS and the massive AP brakes. It had 225/40/18 tires on it at the time.
