New Wheel Options

Option 1:


Option 2:


Option 3:


Option 4:


Option 5:

I like option 5. I had similar color bronze wheels on my black 02 WRX. Looked like nothing else. See my cardomain page for pics.

I figured the chrome ones were a little too much then I wondered how well option 1 would look on a black car thinking maybe it might have been too much and people wouldn't be able to see them too well. Then I thought the bronze ones wouldnt look too bad. I thought it would have been so much easier to choose.

#2 or #4. 19s only though.

There are a lot of tire threads that will give you some good ideas.

Option 2 or 4. Option 1 will look too small (I have gunmetal w/ polish lip 17" and they look like 15")

Chrome on black always looks good. Plus only 5spoke, so it won't be too much.

I'd say 1 for a black car, but I'm not a fan of the print on the spoke. If you want my opinion, check out the ASA JH8 on tire rack. It looks similar but without the lettering.

I think I am probably gonna go with the 18" black wheel. i believe it comes with kuhmo tires for about $950. I just hope that they don't look smaller than they actually are. Pics to come when they finally arrive.
