In my never ending search for wheel options, I've just come across these. Both the monza and the Tornado catch my eye in hi-power silver. As does the price

Are these wheels OK for a WRX03, and are they generally regarded as an OK brand to use?

I've been looking at these too, the diablo looks good. TSL used these on one of their specials so they can't be too bad!

I asked a long while ago about the Diablo's and couldn't get them to fit my car (the don't have a great range of offsets - but I wanted them in gold). Can't get them for the Brembo brakes of the STi8 though, won't fit over.

Had the Monza's on my old classic, looked very nice indeed (again another set of gold ones, but they do them in quite a few sizes). Make sure your not a regular users of very bumpy roads, as this design has been known to have the odd cracking incident when the going gets very tough (I ran them over some fairly tuff rugged roads for a year and had no problems though)

pro 1 looks a good possibilty -any opinions..well light

I'm leaning more towards the pro race 1 or tornado. I've emailed rimstock to find out about the tornado as it isn't listed in the fitment guide for WRX02>

You might want to look in Halfords. They've had a 20% off listed for wheel/tyre packages for some time now, including Rimstocks.

yeah, just wanted an idea of whether they were an OK wheel or not. Going to pop down to elite wheels in Andover to take a look (Halfords have a crap display and I want to see some hipower silver in person)

didn't like the look of the diablo in the flesh. The tornado was very nice in hipower silver, but they don't do a subaru fitment.

Pro race 1 the only other candidate. Looked similar to an Oz superleggara (which the guy said are v.hard to come by at the moment).

ive just ordered a set of pro race 1 in high power silver for my classic. a very nice wheel. i have to wait three weeks tho cos they have to make them. they have not sold very many for subarus which is a good thing in a way because its a good alternative to the oz wheels that everyone one has. i managed to get them for £690 in 17's with toyos which is a bargain i think

mrklaw

how did you get hipower silver? Wasnt' too keen as they only did normal silver, and I wanted a different finish.
