New Wheel Pics - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Carrie (motoring) and I got new wheels so we went to take some shots this morning.

On the STi. a new set of Rota P45F's in an 18x8 with 245-40/18 Falken ZE512.

For the Mini, we got rid of the 18x7 OZ SuperLeggeras (2 were bent by a pot hole) and added some Rota Grids in a 17x7.5 with 225-45/17 Falken ZE512 tires. I think the Mini looks super tough now.

You need to steal some gold with that mini

What a cute couple!

I want those wheels as well Matt. Any rubbing with the 245's?

MattR · 2006-04-15, 12:46 PM

No Rubbing with the 245's...they are the perfect size for the wheels.

I think your car looks hot, but I prefer the OZs on the Mini. Maybe if the stripes and roof were black it would blend a little better.

I think the OZ's are sick on the Mini, but I'm liking the black w/ lip even better. Nice work Carrie!

Those P45Fs are hot, nice choice Matt

Me likee.

I like the new rims on the Mini better than the old. I don't dislike the OZs, but 18" of bright silver kinda overpowers the rest of the body.

sybir · 2006-04-16, 05:23 PM

I'm diggin' the new sets on both cars. The P45F's are the hotness
