Frankly speaking? I never liked any design which comes with no lip. I am not talking about a lip similar to the wheels I have, but even a small one will do the trick. You should be looking at rims that have a chrome finish lip since you own a pearlie

Say, where are those wheels made? Taiwan? Italy?

I think there are a few other people on the board with that wheel style. Maybe GreenMarineSVX. You could check his locker for pics.

Opinion

My opinion is I don't like the "universal" wheel look.. I want a wheel that fit's my svx perfectly.. I don't want extra bolt holes showing.. if there's a cover that covers the center portion of the wheel that helps a bit. Otherwise they are nice wheels.
Anyone know if our bolt pattern is the same as the 05 Sti?

To each his own, I suppose. I don't care for those wheels, but the rotors are nice
