Default WRX Hawkeye Wagon - Wheel suggestions? Share pics!

I'm looking to replace the wheels on my WRX Hawkeye Wagon, what are the tried and tested options that suit this shape well? If you've changed the wheels on your blob/ bug/ hawkeye wagon I'd love to see pics of your choices!

Ideally I'm after secondhand, so any options that are common and plentiful are welcome. Always wanted some ROTA Grids, but the secondhand market for those seems to be slim pickings when searching.

I've contemplated this too for my Blob WRX Wagon. In the end I picked up a set of scruffy (but cheap!) STi wheels which I'll get refurbed. I reckon they are as nice as a 17" wheel can look on a new-age and allow for the Brembo upgrade option.

Got any pics so I know the design you're talking about?

Interested here too, not seen to many pics of alloys on a hawkeye wagon, mine are just standard.

They're Prodrive Speedline PFF7s - a lovely wheel and definitely one I would look for if I wanted 18s.
