STI rims on my Maxi

Ok so I just got some subi sti rims they are gold and 17'' and are lightweight forged. To me they look awesome, going to buy tires in the morning so hopefully I'll have some pics up by mid friday, or friday night!

good luck fitting those. youll need 15-20mm spacers as they are wayyyy too high on the offset.

STI are 114.3 regular wrx is 100

OP in case you didnt see my last post, those wheels will NOT mount unless you get a least a 10mm spacer all around. 17x8 +53 is far from ideal for a max. the center bore is 56.1 so if they made the wheels down to that exact bore size, these wheels will not be mountable...

I just ground out some of the space in the rim and it cleared it, and they fit, but thing is... I had a payment issure at the tire place, and had to keep the over the weekend. His credit card machine was down... so I'll go back monday and we'll see what happens.
