I decided to get the three piece, i think they are hotter, harder to clean? maybe, but i like them more. I don’t think i like the gold at all, but let’s see what the concensus is…

There is a WRX with gold rims down the road from me with a chrome lip.  
The spokes are a bit thicker and has a bit more lip but it is sooo damn sexy on the rims.  
Maybe lugs that match?

I think the gold compliments the OE blue/gold of STI’s, but still is different.

the kinesis K57(17") and K58(18") are my favorite wheels…ever.

They run about $900-1100 each depending on width and finish.

gold with blue lugs looks wicked hot…

howevever, those wheels look like 17’s, you need to go with 18’s…

whatever the recommended size is for the WRX get .5" wider and 10mm lower offset and wider wider wider tires…

then drop its likes its got herpes

OK, just got off the phone with autornd.

I would be getting 18X8.5J +37, which is going to move the front of my wheel out about 5/8" more than stock and increase the backspacing 1/8" (my stock wheel was hitting the coilover, preventing me from lowering it any more…)

However, i am going to have to go with a 2 piece wheel as opposed to the 3 piece wheel (read: no rivets). There are different kinds of center disks that change the amount of lip on the rim.

They are confirming that i can run an O disk in the rear and an A disk in the front… If work says it will work, then that will be some crazy lip. LOL

OMG DISH… where’s violator?

Front = 2 1/4" lip  
Rear = 3" lip

:eek:

after doing the chop, i am really starting to feel the gold…

Price is pretty good @ 2500 Shipped…
