Well he said he has no more Battle's. He will get SDR's next month and has the SubZero's in stock now.

450.00$ for the SubZero's shipped.
650.00$ for the SDR's shipped.

Thinking that the SubZero's may be a good idea to start. Even though I would be copying Scott

Some things to consider about 18" Subz: the tires are bank like $20-$40 more per tire, and there's no weight savings... they are slower than the stock rims as far as acceleration is concerned. The 17" Subz are much better for racing on. Like Phil mentioned: a 17" rim with a 45 series tire is just about ideal for performance driving on a Subaru. So get the 18's if you're going for looks over performance, or the 17's for performance over looks.

I planned on getting a set of 17's for racing on (which I fnally did about a year later than I expected) so I went with the 18" Subz for pimpin on.

The 17's are a good racing rim, as seen on Gary Sheehan's USTCC car!

Thanks for the tips. I think I will just wait again for the SDR's. They come in next month through SubyDude.

Gawd, there is so much I want to buy right now

I met Gary and Joel last year when I was at Sears Point for 4 days last fall. The 1st 2 days were Audi events (though Audi Club let me bring my WRX). Gary was on the track during the Audi instructors run groups, practicing for the last USTCC race. (The Audi club was really cool about letting some of the racers on the track, usually it is reserved for the club.) So, I was on the track at the same time (passenger in an instructor's car), so I got a chance to see him go flying by in the passing zones - it was incredible to see the jump in speed between how fast our instructors drove, and how fast he was.

On Thursday his transmission broke, and so they were scrambling to find a replacement. I told Joel I'd offer to let them use mine if they couldn't find another in time for the race. Luckily the Subaru dealership came through with another. But that would have been awesome if they ended up actually having to swap mine into a racecar.

Haaha! Awesome till it broke too! I'm amazed that Gary runs a stock tranny in that beast! Does his class allow tranny swaps?

If it broke, hey, I'd take it in for warranty work

I don't know if they always run a stock tranny, but Joel said they had done it before. (Not saying much about tranny reliability.) So I assumed swaps were allowable.
