Default Pic. request. new age wrx with sti wheels.

Any one got pics of new age wrx with sti wheels fitted, and has the feel and handling been fine with them on.

A picture of sti replica rear wing would be mighty handy aswell.

Cheers Deano.

Cool

Got a new age wrx with prodrive replica wheels on (ff7's i think) if thats what you mean??....no pictures taken yet but i will attempt to get some today / tomorrow and post them up.

As to the handling......not much has changed really, feels a bit more planted and a bit more responsive perhaps but its pretty subjective....although i do find it easier to get 2nd gear power oversteer out of roundabouts etc, mind you that might be down to the Hankook tyres

is this what you mean ?

With the original RE070's is hadled great with nice stiff sidewall but tramlined a lot. Now got Toyo T1-R's on and they are great but not a sticky. However, noise is down and they tramline a lot less

Thanks Cal, i'm going for gold but I can now see they will look fine and not ott.
How come you had re070 tyres, I presumed they were only on the 04/05 rims which don't fit on the wrx.??

Cheers john, I actually like the gunmetal finish, I pressume theese are wr1 wheels.
I am hoping to get a set of brand spanking new sti wheels and tyres tomorrow but in gold. I would have actually fancied a set of theese wr1 wheels if I could have got hold of a set.

Thanks for the pics, Deano.

i have no idea what they were off mate. I bought them from a guy who switched the wheels for speedlines, the car was brand new and had been stripped and preped for rallying. so im really not sure what they were off
