Nice choice mate!!

Definitely needs to be lowered, and tend to agree with the brake call, despite me receiving the same comments when I put mine on! ;)

Nice wheels but please lower the car because the small profile tires make the huge fender gap even that much more emphasized!

They look like 17"s not 19"s :shock:

Lower it and paint the brakes in a glossy charcoal or something, that should fix it up.

Agree to the loweing etc.

RSGTs always tend to look smaller due to the fact the spokes dont go all the way to the edge of the tyre...

Also agree to the charcoal colour for callipers, I was thinking of doing mine red, but since seeing this I think I might go for a black/charcoal/gun metal colour. How did you find painting them etc? I really can be fucked to put the car on blocks while I paint calipers... I wish I could find someone I can pay... :l

I did my calipers in a dark brembo red you see on ford fpv's, just use car jack and painted one by one wtih Killrust and used decent brush. Cruisin's advice was great, and because its thick enamel it gives it a smooth finish very similar to out of the spray can...

Get SUBARU written across like you see on the red wrx calipers, Brembo would be sh!t...

But i like the wheels

I lowered it a bit, this is probably a Spec.B height or a bit lower than that as a guess.
I totally couldn't get the calliper colour that I was imagining though. Bit rusty on photoshop from my old photochoppin days with cars.

red calipers look good imo if they are 4 or 6 pots standard calipers should be not seen
