Hello and welcome to my thread...

looking for some 18's for my Gen III...

these are the rims I am looking for:

- Liberty tuned by sti rims (like so many other people are)
- Club Spec 9 Wrx rims
- 3.0Rb liberty rims (have found a set but they aren't top of my list any longer)
- or any other 18's that I think would suit my car (not chrome *shudders*) so let me know what you have.

with tyres is prefferable but not essential....in nsw would also be good but happy to pay for shipping if need be... :D

What are peoples thoughts on these wheels....most likely in the bronze for both to suit a white GenIII wagon. Both Lenso....not sure about the place where you buy them? anyone been there......not sure about red centre cap either.

EDIT: They have them available in 18x7.5 with a +45 offset for $1600 with tyres etc....what effect would a +45 offset have with lowering? Guards rolled?

Go the bronze 100%. The darker the better... You've seen pics of Trieu's & Shano's cars :D

Taleb are ok from what I hear, although I have not delt with them personally :P Red centers are different & that's always a winner IMO.

Unsure about the Gen 3's, but I've got 18 x 8 with a 51 offset & they are ok... But my car isn't what you'd consider uber low either.

might rub on the rear +45...as i have an offset of +55 and no need to roll the guards

what you sorry for shane? ha ha....

yeah i think i will get my guards rolled anyway just to be on the safe side, seriously considering either on of those rims in bronze....

bronze on white will look the goods and prob not to common either....

which do you guys like top rims or the bottom ones both come in bronze? :)

^^Been talking to Rob about them. Not sure how good they would look on the wagon?? I need to decide asap as well...

After seeing this pic im keen on these again. 3.0Rb Rims. Surely someone on here has a set they are willing to get rid of :shock:

I had the RB wheels on before the Enkei's. I know which I preferred :D

Even Rich (05wagongtman from this forum) preferred the Enkei's after he bought the RB wheels from me :lol: (both of us had wagons too)
