looks great - didn't think the black/chrome would suit the red, but it definitely stands out. :good:

Looks unique, and definatly in a good way. Looks really nice.

that was another reason I went for this look, I don't want to look like every other Rex on the street.

We have a big cruise tomorrow (~100 WRX's expected) - and I better be the only one with red paint/black wheels! :P

Wow, they do look good esp with the chrome.

What brand are they? :wink:

Great work :shock: I am not a fan of black/grey on red, it is stunning :D

But you still have to switch to a real rear wing :wink:

stmoritzer 05-27-2006 03:23 PM

fucking amazing wheels, congrats dingo!
I already mentioned that red is not my favourite color for a WRX, but with this new rims, wow, sexy look :twisted:

Thanks everyone!

I want one but they cost around $800 - crazy just for a wing.

Just dump the stock one, sell it for a couple of hundreads and your balance will be +200 instead of -800 and you'll also save some kg ;)

dingo 05-27-2006 06:32 PM

I didn't look at it that way....

I already had a buyer for the stock wheels at $775 but that fell through, so now I will re-advertise them for $850. ;)

the whole concept of winter tires is still weird to me too :lol:

Far out! Now that is tasteful mate. Black rims on red cars always make them look aggresive. With that chrome lip too, nice touch.

Are these the rims you were talking about on F-chat? are you using the spacers?

dingo 05-28-2006 06:12 AM

^ yes those rims, and I'm using the 5mm spacers on the fronts.

I rang my insurance company and listed the wheels/spacers as mods (and had my premium adjusted - i.e. UP :P ) and they didn't have a prob - so its all in writing. ;)
