Beautiful! I love those wheels and the ride height. Looks like its ready to do business!

nice!

Yeah thanks for the decals I'm super happy with the color combo!

Looks awesome just so you know though your missing a lug on the front right wheel.

HA HA HA! i was waiting for someone with a keen eye to catch that one. The stud snapped off....

Had these Rota Slipstreams on my car for a few days while Im waiting to get some some new wheels shipped to me. They are 16's and Im not a fan of the way they look on my car. They were much better on my bros bugeye. Just thought Id post these in case someone was thinking about getting them...

I think they look pretty good! Plenty of tire too. Makes it look like its all business. I didn't know you had a 25th anniversary edition too.

Any one know if these will fit my car?

What series Impreza are they off? They aren't a prototype piece, as far as I know they are stock on all jdm Sti Imprezas, and some Legacies. If they are from a gc then fitment should be direct.

Just got my new wheels in the Mail! Out with the Rotas and in with some actual performance wheels. 2004 STI BBS FTW!!






What do you guys think? I know I love em

Also just out of curiosity how do I make a link to this thread in my signature? Like "My Build" and you click it and it brings you here??

I added it to your signature, but if you want to modify it, you can change/edit it in your signature settings in the user control panel.

Those wheels look great on your car. I love those wheels, usually only in black but on a silver car I guess silver BBS look pretty damn good. Now lower it a couple inches...

Thanks Josh! Yeah Kimo I was thinking about trying to get it lower but am still trying to decide if I wanna do coil overs or Struts and Springs. My new brakes should get here along with my new sway bar and endlinks tomorrow. WHOOP!

And whats this????





New wheels yesterday and now they get to come back off to install these bad boys!!!

Excited to see pix. You take nice pictures Haha. Those breaks look better than in my fs ad.

Teaser of the mock up.

Well Its light out so I took some pics of the finished product! Im still gonna take the wheels off again just to make sure everything stayed tight maybe try to do another cycle of bleeding since the pedal is still a tad soft. But oh when I stomp on these the car feels so much better than it did before. Overall Very happy with the upgrade highly recommended to anyone looking to upgrade to something better than our stock brakes. I also replaced the broken stud so now I have 5 lugs on each wheel During the process of changing the stud I bent the ABS ring so I just removed it from both sides of the front. I also removed the dust covers front and rear not sure if this is advisable but the fronts were completly rusted I basically ripped them off I did the same with the rears cause the new brakes wouldn't fit with it in place. Just a note to those using the Kartboy rear adapter brackets I had to use a grinder to clean up the backing plate a little to get the bolt holes to line up nice, it wasn't a lot but its worth mentioning that these rear brackets are not a DIRECT bolt on... At least mine weren't. All said and done I think the wheels and brakes together make the car look much more fresh. My brother has a bugeye and it suffices to say he's a little jelly. Thanks to Josh for the Brake Math Spread sheet and to Florin for the Brakes!

Aannddd the glamor shots

Damn those look good! Well done sir you have great taste. Is your hood faded and clear flaking off or is that a bad reflection?

Thanks Kimo! Yeah the paint on the hood is done. Im thinking about either doing a two tone with black roof ,hood, spoiler and rear trunk... or getting the car resprayed. Im leaning towards a full paint job so that way i can clear up the minimal rust the car has, get a decent hood scoop, and fix my messy front driver fender.

I need to find a local guy that has an 05-06 WRX so I can see if my 16" wheels will clear the 4-pots.

Looks great Tim.
Josh, i have fhi 4 pots on the 91, and i can fit both sets of 16's on them. One set being the rs 6 spokes and the other, some montegi racing ones.

Josh I can try the 16in 98 Snowflake LGT wheels and those Rota slips if you want as well as stock 02 WRX wheels. Just let me know ill try out whatever.
