Iain-WRX Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 Hello boy's and girl's I need some help in finding the best alloy wheels for my Impreza, I'm looking for 18" Black polished alloys,any suggestions to what make and design would best suit my car? 1
Gambit Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 It's a Subaru they all look good on it ;) 1
Iain-WRX Posted September 22, 2013 Author Posted September 22, 2013 It's a Subaru they all look good on it ;) I don't know about that statement! I've seen some with wheels that should not be on the car, there should be a web page where you have a picture of your car and you are able to change the wheels in the picture to find the one's you like, or am I just being to !Removed! fussy?? ;) 1
Gambit Posted September 22, 2013 Posted September 22, 2013 I agree a website with an option to give an idea of alloys on a car would be good and is needed. I've had to photoshop them badly ;) to get an idea.
Miggs Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 wheelbase used to have a computer in store that you could select your car and colour then go through the wheels to see what looks good have you looked at 3SDM wheels? or XXR wheels? i like the 0.05 from 3DSM myself and the 527 XXR wheels my mate has on his bug, they suit it well 1
Iain-WRX Posted September 23, 2013 Author Posted September 23, 2013 Thanks Miggs XXR 527 very nice, I think You have just found my new wheels, google image even has them on a silver impreza :) loving them, did your mate have any problems with the width of the wheel being 18" x 8.75j ( if he went for the 18's? Any arch rubbing? Or sticking out beyond the arch?
Miggs Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 He's got no rubbing issues but he on colonels set firm and has to have arch gap due to horrendous speed bumps on his street, and he's on 18's, width wise they sit absolutely perfect, I can't remember if he used spacers or not but they are bob on, not out too much but not inside the arches either if you get me 1
Iain-WRX Posted September 24, 2013 Author Posted September 24, 2013 Here's a pic of my mates car Yep looks good, do you know what width the wheels are? 8.75j or bigger?
Iain-WRX Posted September 24, 2013 Author Posted September 24, 2013 The picture in Gambits reply is very very nice, also loving the headlamps with the black backing :)
Miggs Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Just got a text back 18x8.75 no spacers, and had to put full camber on and roll the back arches
Iain-WRX Posted September 26, 2013 Author Posted September 26, 2013 Just got a text back 18x8.75 no spacers, and had to put full camber on and roll the back arches Thanks for asking, I will let you what I go for.
