I'm curious. What tire brand and size did you go with? What springs do you have?

I have the SSR Comps for the track, and they look much better with the hub caps off...but that's just my preference. They look really great with the decals on too!

I'll need to have Shane Benson of Advanced Import Motorsports upload his pic of my red R1 decked out with sponsor stickers and the SSR Comps with Hoosier R3S03s!

Ok, I'm sold

These look fabulous. I've got them on my list, and like the original requester I was hoping to see some better shots than the Upgrade Store on Tirerack (be nice if I could see it in red). I've been looking at Volks, OZ, BBS, and these are the best looking AND as light as stock. I'm saving my sheckles. Just got in M2 rear links and arms w/ Mazdacomp bushings for the back - those go in first, then these wheels.

What size are these? Looks like 17 x 8.5 all the way around? I don't want to change the handling characteristics of the car, so I want the same size all the way 'round without rubbing.

Then comes M2's new big brake kit :-)

Oh, what offset are you using?

thx.

Those look good, especially on the silver. Trying to convince my friend to get some for his silver WRX.

that's not my car and those aren't my wheels . these pics are from someone a while ago selling them on the big list. i think they are 17's though. i just kept them for reference.

later,
