SUBE555 Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 The BBS spoke design looks very nice, just a PITA to keep clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
axis008 Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 Ah but when clean they are worth the wash!! -ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ha-evolution Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 At least the BBS wheels don't have those fake rivets in the lip. Those are a real PITA to clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 I find them detracting too, as a good clean wheel design is easy to clean and can look very nice without being bling. Rivets unless completely useful are bling. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacie Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 [img]http://www.bankheist.net/legacy_rear.jpg[/img] Anyone know what color this car is? It looks an awful lot like World Rally Blue...and looking at Subaru's website and the two blues they offer, this looks too light to be the Regal Blue Pearl, but too dark to be Atlantic Blue Pearl. I love this color (and I thought I was completely sold on getting black), so does anyone know if this is going to be available for USDM? Thanks... *Stacie* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ha-evolution Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 You are correct - that is world rally blue. No such color for us here in North America. That car is actually a one-off to display the STi parts available for the Legacy. I don't think that color is even available for the Legacy in Japan.. I think you made a good choice with black btw. :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacie Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 So back to black it is...I think the black makes the lines of the car look very sleek and purty. BTW, the color selector on Subaru's site has teh suck...all the colors look so Crayola and fake...anyone know where to find [i]actual[/i] pictures of the different colors??? Thanks again...sorry for derailing from the wheel talk, but looks like this thread hasn't been used in a while... *Stacie* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SC GT Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 What do you think of these on a black sedan? [img]http://www.importhookup.com/wheeloptions/pictures/formula/formula-mesh2.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Is that chrome or polished aluminum? :D Looks similar to the Spec B style wheel. Better make sure the offset, bolt pattern and sizing is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC GT Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 They are copies of Volks. The color is a hyperblack which looks really nice. They come in 18 X 7.5, +48. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest *Jedimaster* Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 I just bought 17 inch Rota Battles and Kuhmo Ecsta tires last year, so they'll go on the GT. I think they're dead sex-ah! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chapel Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 dont have alot of cash... I just pay well for good wheels I spent $1600 just to get my Zender Turbos for my E30 refinished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC GT Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 The more I think about it, I think I'd rather just put a set of Azenis on the stock rims rather than buying rims and tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 Unfortunately, they don't offer the Azenis RT-215 in stock size, one size wider, that bumps you out of stock tire class. They do offer the ST-115 model though (lesser brother) in stock size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if the rule for this stock tire class is basically the SCCA Stock class rules except that only street tires are allowed, then I don't see why going with 225/45/17 will bump you out of class. Unless your local region has different rule set for the stock tire class. :?: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBE555 Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 I must have read the rule sheet wrong, you're right. That size should work fine. Rule as listed on the Moutons SCCA rules site, last cited 2002 & 2003 per the book... 'Tire must fit the allowable wheels and fender wells without modification.' I must have been thinking Street Touring and Prepared classes which my current vehicle fits under. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
