collegemt Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I have a 2008 legacy gt OBP. i am looking for a set of 17 inch wheels. I really like the 8-10 spoke look, but i am having trouble finding wheels that fit and that will look good with black. I preferably want a silver or polished wheel. any suggestions would be appreaciated. Price is a concern, most i want to spend per wheel is about $175. Here is what i have found so far. Konig feathers: $146 per wheel. I wish these were 10 spokes, but they are only offered in 8 spoke now. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/product/wheels/konfea.ms.ang.jpg pic of my car: Also stock wheels will be for sale shortly after i purchase my new ones if anyone is interested. http://memimage.cardomain.net/member_images/10/web/2962000-2962999/2962064_12_full.jpg
collegemt Posted February 26, 2008 Author Posted February 26, 2008 No suggestion on wheels or comments on the Konig feathers?
mylgt1 Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 Rota G-Force they are 10 spokes and have a 48 offset which is an ideal offset for subaru,the Konogs are a 45 offset which will make them stick out more.you may also want to look at the p1's or Tarmac 2(group a)Rota has alot of nice looking wheels at a good price,I wish the G-forces came in 18's though...

boostsr20 Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 I've been trying to find out if the Feathers are a drilled for 5x100 only or if they are multi drilled. I can NOT find pics of them in a 5x100. They are way lighter than the Rotas and look pretty decent.
collegemt Posted February 27, 2008 Author Posted February 27, 2008 I decided to go with the Konig feathers. I will let you know about the bolt pattern and post pics next week. I believe they weight just over 17lbs a piece, pretty light.
TPLGT Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 You are on emodding MFer...I will tell you that. Good for you. I thought you were in college and on a budget? Rehab is for quitters.
collegemt Posted February 27, 2008 Author Posted February 27, 2008 Just about done with phar,acy school 6 weeks baby. And my wife makes good money, so that helps. It sure is fun modding though.
collegemt Posted February 27, 2008 Author Posted February 27, 2008 Update, Just changed my order with discount tire and had them order me in some Rota tarmac 2's, i thinkt the 10 spokes will look better. Edit:Discount tire cant get Rota tarmac 2's. I will see what the feathers lookmlike when they get them in. If i don't like them i will find something somewhere else.
boostsr20 Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Discount deals with Rota? How much were the T2's through them? Size?
TPLGT Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 T2s look nice...Pharmacy school is good..80k coming out...not bad! Rehab is for quitters.
str8dwn Posted February 28, 2008 Posted February 28, 2008 Slightly more, but another option. In 18x7.5 and 18x8.5. Surely you can bargain for free install. Rays G-Games Sidewinder 1pc http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/wheelProductBySize.go?tc=GGAS01&wd=18&bp=5-100*9-100&anr=true&rcz=30188
collegemt Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 Discount deals with Rota? How much were the T2's through them? Size? They don't deal with rota but they said they can get them and they will price match anyone. So subbydude had them for $650 a set.
collegemt Posted February 28, 2008 Author Posted February 28, 2008 T2s look nice...Pharmacy school is good..80k coming out...not bad! Actually i just signed a job offer and i will make 108k/year
zeroryde Posted March 11, 2008 Posted March 11, 2008 Sorry to hijack the thread, but I was thinking the same now that the 18" G-force came out which is the advan RS copy... what would look better on a 08 DGM LGT, 18" tarmac 3 in hyper black, or 18" g-force in charcoal grey
