Smile Pic request: Hawkeye's on 18's please.

Hi all,

I'm thinking of going for a set of 18's on my spec.D, but can't decide what sort of design to go for. I'm going to go for something in a dark anthracite or almost black in a dark grey sort of way..lol!!

So if anyone can post pics of their hawkeyes on 18's I'd be grateful. In an ideal world, they'd be crystal grey hawks with dark coloured wheels, but I can picture the colours, so any shade is fine.

I particularly like the look of BBS CH's, but they're a bit pricey.

Oh and I'd also like to hear your comments on how they affected the ride/mpg....

So fire away with the pics and comments chaps...

I've also spotted these and quite fancy them. Great price too...

Any thoughts..? Could they be repainted..?

Given the pcd of the later STi's and the clearance factor for the Bembo's you'll not be spoilt for choice I'm afraid.

usual suspects here

..but those OZ you like are just plain wrong for an Impreza I think.

Thanks for your reply Elmer.

Had a look through that thread and found exactly what you say, the "usual suspects". I was hoping to maybe stray from the usual stuff and stick my neck out with something a touch different.

Interesting to hear your views on those OZ's though, I thought they'd have looked pretty good..lol!!

Rota GRAs are quality, shame they only come in 7.5 and not 8.0 or 8.5.

I recently saw some wheels that were very different and I liked them, never heard of them before:

DC PERFORMACE BLACK EDITION 8,5 X 19

Thanks for the replies so far, anyone find any difference to the ride or handling on 18's?

Any more thoughts on styles for my spec.D..?

Don't want them too similar to the OE rims.

Not sure if you have seen the pics of my car.. but here are a few that show up the wheels pretty well.
