Iain-WRX Posted September 22, 2013 Author Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted September 22, 2013 Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miggs Posted September 23, 2013 Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain-WRX Posted September 23, 2013 Author Share 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Yep they look great 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miggs Posted September 23, 2013 Share 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
