andrew.anderson Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 since a Spec B is silver, I would do silver or gunmetal.. but since you already have Black CE28s, I would go with silver or some high polish to give it a little "bling" for year-round use. Or you can go really wild with some cinnamon color rims to match your interior I am not a big fan of gold rims. They look good on blue and silver cars though.

SWP-LegacyGT Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 I think tasteful black/polished lip wheels are hot Overplayed and IMO, cheapen the look of the car. I expect Scans to get some new rims here pretty soon as the "fad" is coming to an end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waxiboy Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 nah, I like VS-XXs better.. gotta love the U-mesh The VS-XX is similar to the Work Esfida i used to have on my 1997 Mazda 323F. Same spoke design and both have semi flush bolts that hold the 3-pc wheel together. The only difference I see is that the lugs are not covered on the VS-XX. The only downside on the Esfida is the weight. I don't know if that changed in the VS-XX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsalicru Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 CCW doesn't clear Brembos very well on the STi.. keep that in mind. I wanted a set for my STi and they said although it could be done, it wouldn't look pretty and I'd have to run a thick spacer. "some say, his arms are made of coiled adamantium fibers. And that he tops his cereal with nuts and bolts. All we know is, he's called the Jose." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the 6061-t6 aluminum material used strong enough to with stand pot hole impacts, and all the road conditions in daily driving? A friend of mine told me about these rims, so I was curious to see if anyone on here had them or knows of them. Id appreciate the input, and info. Sorry for Thread jack.

A friend of mine told me about these rims, so I was curious to see if anyone on here had them or knows of them. Id appreciate the input, and info. Sorry for Thread jack. rims bends usually start with the tire choice you match with along with the car weight. If you pick a fairly strong tire and have the correct tire pressure to withstand the impact, you'll be fine. (there's a reason why race tracks use tire walls more so nowadays than the typical jersey/concrete wall as it can absorb better of the impact).. it's an exaggerated example, but you get the idea. CCW's have been used in a lot of race cars (who hop over all sorts of gators and curbings and some off-road excursions out on the track).. the good thing about them is that most of their wheels are multi-piece, so even if you bent the rim, they can be a lot easier and cheaper to repair than a single-piece rim.

Xenonk Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Does Rota D2 has 18" that works for Legacy? I believe so.. check http://www.rotawheels.com or just call up http://www.racecompengineering.com / http://www.gtworx.com if you need to find out since they have the list of all the sizes for Rotas.

Thats good to know. I really appreciate the reply. So tires like the pirelli pzero neros, bridgestone re090(i think thats what they are called), and products like those would be good to use right? Alright, well I think I've found my set of rims im going to get this coming summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
