is the tyre size correct? 245 width? Looks great! Have you got any other pictures of them fitted? I have the same wheels to fit too, want to check out what tyre size to get

There is no "correct" tyre size if that's what you mean. I went for 245/40s because they give more of a meaty look which suits the Impreza nicely.

I know what you mean. I was just checking it wasn't a typo as most people seem to go for a 225 width on them. I like the way yours look with the 245

Yeah the 225 is a good look, but my personal preference is to have a bit more meat on the rim. 245s are more expensive too, but worth it imo as not only does it look slightly better you get a better ride... still a rock hard ride, but better..

Yeah, you can't really modify the RB suspension as I think it's as low as most lowering springs go. It's probably the 245 tyres making it look a little lower than most

I love this. I saw this and immediately wanted those wheels, but fancied the lightweight speedlines. 255s are pretty chunky! I would have bought 255s but the price difference for Michelin Super Sports was just nuts..

Haha, it's called a front rake. It provides extra front end grip and downforce. You will see the Formula 1 cars using this setup.
