They look good mate. How heavy are they??

You may regret the extra weight over the light wheels you had before (based on personal experience with my GC).

Hopefully you dont as they should look very tough especially with the concave and the fitment.

Im guessing they are XXR wheels based on 8.75" width?

Ps. next tyres should be 255/35/R18. Make it fit

255 no worries just chop our guards and away we go lol

They would be heavy being cast just like rotas but with 2.5L and heaps of torque shouldnt have a problem to spin them

yeah i got 235's on 8.5's, not stretched atall really, they'll be getting replaced with 255/265/275 when i get round to it though

its those crazy eastern states forester drivers ordering hella offset custom 9" steel rims that are getting 215's stretched onto which is a concern

only thing is .............. they clash with hetrosexuality
