Subaru themselves are to blame for this Gold Rash, they kitted out the blue racing 'Prezzers with gold wheels and since those halcyon 555 days everybody seems to think they are the dog's nuts.

They aren't. Giugiaro never fitted the cars with gold wheels. Because they don't suit the car. They might suit if the SVX came in brown, beige or gold colours. But it doesn't.

Gold wheels clash starkly with most of the SVX colour schemes with the possible exception of red. The effect is ritzy. Ritzy is just a couple of micro clicks short of bling, in case you are wondering.

Ease up on gold rims, people, they are cheapening the look of our cars.
[Or buy the gold Sti rims if you like them and spray them silver]

Holy rant, calm down about the color. This project was all about going +1 to 17s with proper width, offset, and rubber.

And 1G for factory forged BBS with usable shoes? Couldn't pass them up.
