Help with picking rims..
�
�
Hi guys,
I just recently picked up my 04 WRX, I am though very stuck on picking rims. Really don't know what rims to go for, I would appreciate input on this matter. I have seen numerous Rims in the member gallery, but wanted to know what you think would look nice on an 04 WRX.
Please note that I am willing to pay about 1700 for rims at most.
Thanks!

depends .. is that 1700 with tires?? What size do you want? Colors? Do you like polished lips? Will you be upgrading brakes in the future? any particular patterns youre fond of?
| jonik | 03-02-2004 07:24 PM |
No, that isn't 1700 with tires, well really not sure about the color (that is the problem), but take into consideration that it is a silver WRX so it really can't match with everything. Yes brakes will be upgraded in the future.
| ANashTy | 03-02-2004 07:51 PM |
Well .. theyre are many choices for $1700 without tires. You can afford some Volks, Advans, Weds Sport, Work ... pretty much everything except for the HIGH End Prodrive/Volks/Advans/etc.
And its always cheaper to find used wheels, so maybe you should check out the private for sale and get an idea of what you might want.

Been to Suby Dude?
[url]http://www.subydude.com[/url]
He sells Rota's, which are frankly at the low end of what you are looking to spend. You could pretty much get some 18" Rota's with tires for $1700....lol. (Just FYI - I have a set of 17" Rota SDR's on my 04 and I'm VERY pleased with the wheels.)
But! I'm sending you there because the site has a large gallery of wheel colors on Suby's. Worth spending some time browsing to get a feel for what you like.
Of course, you may find you really like the Rota's and the grand I just saved you on wheels can be put somewhere else.
*cough* tips accepted *cough* ;)

I have the gray supperleggeras on my 03 WRX sedan. Love them.. they are light and easy to keep clean. They should be around 1500 for a set, maybe even less. if ya want pics let me know.

I went with 17" OZ SL's in silver. Well under 1700 with tires.
They're stunning. Not sure if their would be issues if you decide to upgrade your brakes though.
With the money you're willing to spend you could buy something really high end & rare. Can't go wrong with Volks.

Yeah, don't get me wrong, I havn't heard anything bad about Limix's but I have just heard too many good stuff about the Volk rims to pass them up.

SSR Comps look awesome on silver :)
Linea's are sweet but not many brakes fit under them
Volk's are great wheels, but they are too common

I have yet to see a set of volks in person on any car.
I would think their pricetag & the wait time would make them pretty rare.

If money isn't an issue, its hard to beat those Volk LE's in gunmetal, can't do much better. For my 04 its going to be Gunmetal Rota Tarmac II's as I need to keep the expenses down.
