These wheels are just soooo sexu&l!!!!!!!
AAAAHHHHHh....One dAy.....you will be mine.......aahhh 
Product Description:
Rays (Japan) Volk Racing GT-S "Gunmetal" Forged Lightweight Wheels
"These are a forged two piece aluminium wheel. They are made from the finest aircraft grade 6061 aluminium. Each part of the wheels is made by a process called hot forging. A solid piece of aluminium billet is heated and is shaped applying compressive force from a press.
The 1st forging process is performed with a pressure of 5,000 kg’s per cm2. In the 2nd forging process 3,500 kg’s are applied per cm2. The lip is also forged to 3,500 kilograms per cm2. Forging refines the grain structure and improves the physical properties of the metal. With the advanced RAYS design process the grain flow can be oriented in the direction of principal stresses encountered in actual use. Grain flow is the direction of the pattern that the crystals take during forging. Physical properties (such as strength, ductility and toughness) are much better in a forging than in the base metal which has crystals randomly oriented. The excess material left on the wheel is then machined off (to tolerance of 1/100 of a millimetre). Powder coating and clear coating is done by a special proprietary process to ensure long lasting quality and durability."

Volks wheels are utter quality & class, though not too everyones taste, surprisingly! But a bit out of my price range 
IMO Buddy club are good value for money & good quality too.
ps Budgie what plans have you got for the motor??

They wouldn't look right on my bug (I don't think) but I did draw a sharp intake of breath over how pretty I think they are.
I think wheels, possibly more than anything else, are a very personal thing. IMO, the only thing that could look worse on an Impreza than gold wheels are chrome spinners.. or a set of TSW 3-spokes.. actually... I think the TSW's would be better, at least they'd get a "****, I haven't seen a set of those for YEARS! And they still look crap!"

I was almost convinced to by a set of TE37's by the importer until I realised that the ones they were offering at a stupid price were the wrong offset
I almost cried.
