New wheels look the shiznit Bruce. More aggressive which IMO is a good thing. Interested to see what you do with the wrap also. :D

Tyres are Kumho KU36 225 40 R18.

Australian distributor sourced, not grey imports such as Tempe tyres.

Hi Kieran, where have you been? And how have you been?

You're quite right the MY08 STI rims are 7.5 inches. Bugger I always thought they were a bit wider.

Thanks on the rims. I knew you liked them when I didn't see a post. :lol:

Sorry to hear the modding has stopped. What happened?

Come over when you're free.
