Default Original 2005 sti wheels

Anyone got any pictures of 2005 sti wheels in black. Fancy their idea of powder coating them in black but want to see the result before I dive.

Incidentally, I saw a very nice RB5 like yours on the A47 at Peterborough yesterday morning, something like T16 CDL. Was that you perhaps?

That looks nicer than I expected. I sold the rb5 a couple of months back. Got a 2005 sti in blue now.

Ah, perhaps I should have guessed that from your question!

Lol. Just noticed that. Proper chunky wedge. Looks like it weighs a tonne.

I did this refurb myself to see if i liked it and i love the black look, think it really suits the wheel style. I'll get them redone properly at some point.





Sorry about the bad images, i only tend to get the good camera out when im on track and then ive got some old track slag wheels on

Loving this picture, dark wheels on a blue Scooby gives it a much meaner look.

Another one:

I prefer anthracite to black, black can look lost sometimes:

It looks remarkably like one of these:

in which case, the only heavy bit about it is the price!
