jfg22557 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 do they being 17's really look too small on our cars? I've got an OBP 05 with some f'd up stock rims that hit a few curbs courtesy of the (woman) previous owner. Since I picked the car up I've been thinking of getting these. Always been a fan of the gold sti bbs's, mainly because of the great looking contrast between the obsidian and the gold (as some of you guys above displayed beautifully ). I really want them, but this size situation I read about here is kinda concerning me. Opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johndas Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Rims are best suited for auto cross or beefier winter tires! I run winters on mine and love them on the car! J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scootyc Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 ^^ Make sure you are lowered to pull these rims off. Your wheel well will look vary vacant if you are at stock suspension height. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nka Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Anyone is running stock tire size (215/45R17) on them ? What it look like ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always been a fan of the gold sti bbs's, mainly because of the great looking contrast between the obsidian and the gold (as some of you guys above displayed beautifully ). I really want them, but this size situation I read about here is kinda concerning me. Opinions? I opted for 17's mainly because of tire prices. I don't think they look small...my only gripe is the rear fitment. The rear could be pulled out a bit. Here are a few more pics to get another look. I'm currently on H&R springs,koni shocks and Kumho ASX's 235/40/17's. http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h276/briannguyen435/autox.jpg Habitual Line Stepper: Here is an HDR that makes the gold look bronze. http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h276/briannguyen435/hdr2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N.sane Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 NASIOC would be your best bet, I dont think you can buy them new from the dealer anymore since it's from 2004. Keep in mind 2005+ doesnt fit because it switched to 5x114.3 bolt pattern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berkshire40 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) Right now these are my winter setup.
