As it's a pity to find some pretty aftermarket wheels (available in Europe) for my STI7 and as I'm tired to search, I think I will purchase a set of Prodrive 8x18 PFF7.

I'm not sure this wheel size will help for the drivability, am I wrong ?
Your comments about the PFF7 will be mostly appreciate.

Apart that, I plan to fit them with Bridgestone S03 PP but I read a lot of good things about the GoodYear F1 GSD3 but we don't use them very often here in Switzerland. Could be this tire good enough for a 300HP STI ?
Any comment about your STI PFF7 rubber fitting ?
Many thanks for your help !

I have the Pff7's with the Goodyears on my STi PPP, excellent choice! I've found that the combination are not as stiff as the OEM 17" with Bridgestones.

Well worth it!

P.s. they're also easier to clean.

Hum, you say that they are not so stiff as the OEM fitting, very strange for this size... Does it seems that the GoodYear sidewalls are soft ?
Stiff sidewalls are important for cornering, not ?
Thanks STI Man.

I've had no problems with the cornering.
