Question ANTHRACITE ALLOYS?

I currently own a standard, blue 2003 sti, and am considering getting my gold alloys either powder coated or sprayed anthracite. Good idea? Does anyone have any pictures of a new age impreza with anthracite alloys? I reckon it could look smart but not quite sure. What do you think?



Cheers GreigRFC

What colour are those alloys kev. They look a bit lighter than anthracite but they are smart.

Nice one budgie!

I was told they are what was fitted to WR1 when they came into the uk before the fitted the 18's. Don't know the colour or the code for the paint.

I had my MY05 JDM STi gold alloys powder coated anthracite. All in all I am very happy ... HOWEVER ... if you go on a track, do not expect the finish to stay looking very nice. My wheels got so hot the paint crazed and melted !! Fortunately I was just using the wheels for the track anyway, so I don't care what they look like now, but I would have been well pi##ed if they were by day 2 day wheels

Thanks for the pictures they look really smart.

I wont be taking the car on a track, so dont really have to worry about the wheels overheating.

Do you have any pics of your wheels T20Driver?

Much appreciated
