My SVX, now with 100% more STi *PICS*

Finally got all my finals done today, so I came home and put the new rims on.

2005 STi take-off's. 17x8, 225/45 Pirelli Pzero Nero's. 9000 miles on them.

They fit perfect, and the STi's stock lug nuts work as well. (Havent checked if the wrench works on them though...)







It's pouring...and dark, so you'll have to deal with those pics for now.
I need to get my grille painted finally, clean it up, and then I'll take some nice pics.

I have often wondered how STI wheels would look on the SVX.

Could you mount two of the STI wheels on one side of the Claret and take some pics of that combination for us?

Those look better on an SVX than an STi

plus red and gold! Best combo ever.

All subarus have a 19mm lug nut head so whatever wrench you're using should work assuming it's 19mm.

Those look great man!! Not cheap, but compared to other high quality wheels not bad. Good find!

Nice car, but for whatever reason the wheels don't do anything for me. Guess I just dont like the gold. Thanks for the pics, we'll have to see some with the painted grille outside when it isn't raining.

Perfect!!!

Those puppies are PERFECT!!! Real BBS Subaru STi's with racing heritage and their PERFECT. Got the sexy Italian/Ferrari-like thing goin' on big time. If I wasn't so damned germ phobic I'd lick my screen too!!! I think those bronze bad boys'd also look great on a green, black or ______??? What do you guys think? Claret's already been suggested...
Gotta have a set!
Bwana you lucky dog! How did finals go?
