the 6 looks quite a bit bigger then the 5 IMO
i would go with a v5 for a stock body car, the v6 looks better on the widebody ones
v6 on mine, as you can see, they are fackin huge
but i have the wide arches on so it balances out a lot more

Whichever you buy, DO take care that you:
1. DO NOT buy one made simply/just from fibreglass. I did, and mine, although expensive to buy, has cracked and also bubbled and rippled. It HAS been on five years, mind
2. Get it painted by someone you trust. Cheap paintjobs will fade, change colour, or peal off. Or all three
Trust me on this
Alcazar, (just bought a genuine one off e-bay )

I guess you're putting it on a 4-door classic? In my opinion neither look right on a 4-door. I'd go for a mid-level on a 4-door and leave the big ones to the Type-Rs (which most have as standard - version 5 onwards)

stickymicky not wanting you to hijack the thread but car looks mint, you got anymore photos to show off the arches
and i kind of agree with scoobiedude v4 looks better imo even though i have a sti6 which has just been removed

looks very nice mate, i have been thinking of fitting the arch kit to my just to make it a bit different from the rest.
as for the alloys they seem to fill the arches well, did you have to use spacers?
i assume they are 18's but whats the profile on them

wheels are et35 offset, 225/40/18 i think?
6mm spacers on the rear as my rear arches are wider then the fronts (i dont have "22b" front arches i have do-luck ones)
the dafter the offset, the crapper the car drives, so i never wanted the front uberwide as the handling will suffer
do-luck ones are reported to be 30mm wider
