well the BBS wheels are gone and now I'm buying new wheels. the problem is I've been trying to choose what ones to go with...
either the Silver wheels or the Black timeattacks w/ the red ring:shrug:
and right now my brembos are red so...? heres some pics of the 2

I say silver, only because I think it will look best on the vehicle. The time attack is great, but I think it looks bad with WRB. Time attack is a silver/white/black wheel IMO.

I have always been a huge fan of Gold on WRB. I know its the OG style for subarus, but man, does it look great.

I would go with the golds but my brembos are red and not gold so it'd look like a crappy color combo:(

gold with gold is the crappy color combo. gold with red is WAY better. plus on the sti brembos the lettering is red on the gold caliper.

Yup good point. You powdercoat them yourself? Go with silver, I think it would look mean! :) I want to powder mine in black I think. Still undecided though. That way I can go with any color wheels.

I think my gold wheels and brembos look great.

your gold rims are a better shade of gold than my stockers, I think so at least.

I was just saying that thing looks hot as hell. I knew if I ever had a newer WRX or something, I would get Rota P45R's or Advan RGII or Advan RCII. Look at those ones too mang, they be sexy.

The 362's are a nice looking wheel. ImportImage gave me a price of $595 shipped. The price is right!
