Taxdude Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Looking at getting a set of 18" for the summer and the Tarmac III is what I leaning towards. My car is BSM and I'm split on the color choice. So anyone got an opinion? Or pic's to share? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Love the steel grey color..just got my Tarmac II's [ATTACH]52266[/ATTACH] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taxdude Posted May 2, 2008 Author Share Posted May 2, 2008 The steel grey looks killer with the Spec B body color. But it might be a bit to dark with BSM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Maybe...it is just a tad darker than my stock paint. BSM is much brighter..and wheels will definitely contrast more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taxdude Posted May 5, 2008 Author Share Posted May 5, 2008 Having never seen the Hyper Silver's in person and not quite being able to tell from the photo's how would you describe them color and finish wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutru01 Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 They have a shiny looking finished (not quite chrome, but definitely reflective). The hypersilver would look great on your car IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeslk Posted May 5, 2008 Share Posted May 5, 2008 I can post up a pictures of just the rims alone for you later. It is more of a very bright silver, as mentioned not chrome like but just a bright silver. I will post some more pictures for you later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spec B Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Not tuned by Sti wheels (I wish)..they are Rota Tarmac II's. You could get the real deal wheels at Japanparts...they are pricey but sweet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taxdude Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Yep the link is wonky. But I found your car and the hyper silver's do look very nice with BSM. It looks like you still have the stock suspension so what would you say the ride difference is between the stock rims and tire and the 18's w/225/40? here is my bsm with tarmac III in hyper silver (18x8.0 225/40) http://http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=84343&highlight=2.5i+rota+tarmac+III%27s if the link doesnt work just search for 2.5i w/ rota tarmac III's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
