    Mainly talking about the wheels...but the bikerack isnt bad either. Anyone know which bbs these are? And from the looks of the wheel i dont think they would clear brembos. Anyone know where to get them?

    I personally don't think those wheels look good on subys. I've seen them on many wheel websites though so I dont think they are hard to find

    old school BBS wheels belong on VWs



    and poking and streching is the most re-fucking-tarded ricer trend ever

    ugh, hate that car! It's been all over the web and gotten a lot of flack.

    First of all I don't like the rims too much, they belong on an older car.
    Secondly his offset is just completely awful and he staggered the wheels! He must go through wheel bearings faster than gasoline.

    i agree with the stretching and the staggered look...but on ebay ive seen sets in 17x8...so neither would be an issue for me. Personally i think the wheels are kinda ugly, but i like the way they look on the car lol.

    any sites your remember? i can't find them.

    all you have to do is get some wheel spacers if they dont fit over the brembos. i had to get some for my axxis

    I am not a hugh fan of these wheels. But i have to go with scoobaru they look good on the car. As for staggered wheels on a AWD car just NO.

    I wouldn't mind have some CCW's that looked like that, but that is because CCW's are badass.

    The staggered rim sizes cannot be good for those cars. It's certainly unique, but not really my speed. I hate the stretched tire look myself.

    I had a 1976 BMW 2002 with BBS rims that looked real damn close to those. I always loved the way they looked on the car but I got a few comments like "that car looks sweet but when are you going to change the wheels?"
