Well I am stuck trying to pick some wheels for my WRX. Here are some of the options I am looking at. Pretend option 4 is a blue car. What do you guys like best?

Rota / Work / Prodrive are the main ones i am considering. almost got my hands on a beauty pair or Rays but was 1 day late and they sold.
Get the TE37's... everyone and their dog has work emotions

TE-37's or Volk STi's(option5).
Those two styles will never go old. :bigpimp:

option 5, I think gold is the only way to go on a blue WRX.

I vote for #3 (Advan) or #4 (Volk) :thumbsup:
Maybe one day my Subie will have some too...although I am pretty happy with my forged Enkeis!

Personally I like TE37s, but they don't really go with the GD. I'd say option 5. If you can afford it, the Speedline 18" 2013 in gold is my all time dream wheel. Probably cost you your arms, legs plus a kidney and possibly more.

Otherwise, Rota Tarmacs..!

busy, busy. :D
I would really love to get option 1, but they are already getting played out. They look so good on a Suby though....
Option 5 was my 2nd choice, but now I am leaning to option 4...
:banghead:
Option 5 ftw!
I also liked the colour matched rims that were on the tunerworks STi at DTP.

Why? Because Volks cost more? :rolleyes: I think Rotas are awesome given the price. They're light, high quality and they look really good.

im down for option 3! =)
annnnd my 2nd choice would be #1

How big are you going?
If you're going bigger, I think #5 would look nicest, though the color is a little to "bright".
If smaller, #1 would look the best, but you are right, they are everywhere.

good luck affording the gc-05. They were almost as much as my lexions at 800/wheel. They are really nice but I think you're better off getting something else

cantuar can. but they charge so much for them. some vendors on nasioc will give you free shipping to the egde of the US and then you pay the rest.
best bet is to look on nasioc. US vendors mainly.
