My 98 classic RS->STi : need some input

I've been considering some new wheels and maybe some exterior work.
I'm really fresh out of ideas for the wheels. I can't find VOLK TE-37 in 17x8 or 18x8 in the right colours (grey or gold)

I also am dying for a wide-arch kit, and the WRC front and rear bumpers, but I haven't heard any reports of owners with the kits on long term and how durable they are?

I loved the look of this car over in Kyoto

but I thought his wheels were too SMALL! I also don't like the 98 classic gold 5 spokes. They look a bit dated to me.

I did manage to score THIS the other day:

any recommendations on what direction to take next? l'aunsport makes a nice 22b arch kit... how does it hold up over long term.

lovley looking motor matie..:)

If it were mine i'd change the wheels. nice black set of 18's.

Take a look at ABW's work on the essex forums. thev'e done a wide arch kit for the classic..bit cheaper than l'aunsport..:D

White Rota GRA 17x8 or 18x8 but only if you go ahead with the Wide arch kit. If not the widest I'd go would be 7.5 on a classic.

These are 17x7.5 on an RA I sold not to long ago.
