Thanks Guys! I debated on the wheels for about a month until I decided on these wheels. I saw a few white cars with black wheels and they looked good so I went with it. Do you guys recommend any tires? I just kept the factory ones until they wear out.

I bought them at Les Swab. I went there because they work with you. We went through a few sets at not cost fitting the wheels and testing them. Very, Very helpful. I would recommend them highly. Problem is if you are not in Utah at the same Les Swab it would not matter. They are Mortegi Racing MR118.

Here is a link from Tire Rack.

Les Swab matched the price from Tire Rack. Les Swab was 20 bucks more a wheel.

45 backspace. They do not stick out the car at all. If any one wants more pictures at different angles I would be happy to take more. Thanks again for the complements.

what are you planning on doing?

i'm just asking as i always thought i would go with an AT type tire... but i do 90% highway driving that i don't think it would make sense.

but i would like the more aggressive tread pattern until i had to fuel up

on my 05 forester i went with goodyear tripletreds... looked good and didn't sacrifice too much MPGs.

good hunting and the wheels look great!
