Now I'm trying to decide which rims to get. What do you think would be a better fit for the STEYE.
Gold
Bronze
JDM sti spec c rims (jdm 18x8 with 12 spokes, usdm 17x8 with 10 spokes)

I have been thinking about a STi for a while. What’s the deal with these cars, are they $$$ to own (insurance, maintenance, gas, etc, etc) How is theft? Also, if you purchase a used one how’s the reliability?

Cholo pays peanuts since he is in Windsor. The ins. rep. didn't even have the Sti or impreza on file. He is paying dirt cheap.
in regards to theft, shouldn't be a problem unlike the 03-04(??) where they didnt' have immobilizers and theft was rampant for them and it made the most stolen list.

Now if you launch the car at around 5000-5500 rpms you should be okay. I've tried both and the results of your car getting out of the start box is close to the same. As for gas you can forget it, its a freaken fish

gold rgII's sir!
how heavy are those jdm sti spec c rims? if they offer insignificant weight differences, then why bother. how about s203 rims?
i say just go aftermarket. RGII's, CE28's, or ssr type C's will match and are lightweight.
