Wouldnt mind a couple of photos if you dont mind....


im a little stuck as to which wheels to go for...

Rota grids OR Revolution Millenniums.

18 or 19 inch?!?!

I know you cant get the revolutions in 19 so that would be an option only for the grids.

anyone got any photos of 18' grids on there motor? in actual fact just post photos of your wheels!



On a side note, how do you find living with a set of 19's?

I wouldnt go for 19's, they destroy the ride comfort as the tyres are like elastic bands, and an Impreza isnt a 2 door sports car

drummerkev

Iv got an 03 blob PPP STI mate :-)

Yeah 18's it is then i think. i also look at the price of tyres for the 19's as well, i need a morgate to afford them.... lol

drummerkev

Rota grid drift 18s on bc coilovers all arches rolled.

drummerkev

So on the 18 grids would i need to roll the arches?

The plan would be to get a set of tein lowering springs too, 35 drop on front 25 on the rear.....dont fancy coilovers if im honest heard they are a little harsh on the road.

Are you having a laugh? Tein lowering springs will be brutal on UK roads, in fact lowering springs are a terrible idea. IF you can afford a nice set of Rota's then you can afford some proper suspension - suspension is more important than wheels.

A good set of adjustable coilovers - you can make them as soft or as hard as you like (within the normal 24 point adjustment anyway )

lol wheel *****

drummerkev

What suggestions do you have then buddy?

Trinity

iTrader: (28)

Mine are still the more budget end of the coilover market with BC Racing ones, but a lot of folk run them on here, excellent price and rebound adjustable - just make sure you get the rear extenders for the adjustment *****, otherwise youd be taking the seats out to make them soft or hard Apex do some cheap and good quality ones (they are actually rebranded BC ones im led to believe)

But whatever you do, avoid Tein if you live near speed bumps or potholes..

drummerkev

hmm the price really puts me off the coilovers if im going to be honest.

all i want is the car to sit a little lower! lol

Trinity

Personally, I wouldnt be spending a grand on wheels, when suspension is far more important. Best to get that right, then get some wheels at a later date...and no definitely not 19's either

drummerkev

no 19's are too big in my opinion. well what i thought was going to be 1k for the week plus whatever the tyres has now become 2k plus the tyres.... great.

Trinity

Do it once, do it right

or dont waste a grand one wheels when your car aint ready for it
