Wheels are crackers, and once you lower it, it'll look a hundred times better.

BTW, IMHO, lose the blue paint from calipers.... looks tacky.

Even red or black but not light blue....

I've priced the same wheels up in the back of some mags, and just for these wheels alone... £1100 quid... so my price of £849 with tyres and nuts is unbielevable... dunno how they kick them out so cheap... I ain't complaining though!!!

Thumbs up

O.Z. Alloys are the way to go for SC008Y's as they are so georgous and looks the park on the Impreza's + and id the WRC teams use O.Z. especially Subaru then they must be a good choice!

long live O.Z. alloys

Talking

I don't really wanna go stupid low now, been there done that... although it does get alot of attention, I bought the Scooby to drive, reallt wanna take it to the top of the tyres on the 18's...
But don't want it bouncing around everywhere... although a 150mm drop on a Scooby...!!! Hmmmmm...
Look nice, but not pratical... as lowering to the extreme that I did on my Orion put alot of stress on alot of other parts... especially wheels bearings...etc.
Just after a decent drop to get rid of the gap between my arches and the 18's...?
