I second that, and what size tires are those?

I thought the 06' wrx wheels didnt fit due to a different offset or somthin like that.

Nice work! Dig those wheels.

Some of the shots look like you blacked out the chrome on the sides - others not. You might want to try out if you like the look. Heard there's tape out there to do cheap and easy...

Hmmm, maybe I should x-nay my wing?

Get a muffler tip welded on and save the paint on your bumper? Cheers!

Thanks, everyone!!! The Suspension is Eibach Sportline. The wheels fit perfect(lock-to-lock), no rubbing, and I just had some 18's on it, that didn't rub. the tires are 215/45R17, RE92's. I know they are crappy, but free is free.

oh yeah, the exhaust tip I have from an 06 impreza, and the "blacked out" effect is from the front bumper missing the strip.

Wow, the car looks great! I love the wheels and I like it without the spoiler.

+1 for blacking out the chrome all the way around.

How is the ride with that setup, just curious because the stance is perfect.

the ride is pretty stiff, but not bone-jarring. the RE92's have no give in the sidewall, the 215/35R18 Hankook tires I had on before were softer, now I can "feel" the road.

man are there any factory subaru wheels that dont look 200000x better on the legacy than on the car they came on?
those wheels would look pretty sweet painted gold as well.

+1 for gold and red. Like the painted black 'grill' too..
