You can take the centres out with the tyres attached.

I did that to mine when I got my centres repainted, although my tyres were deflated.

Grrrr trying to make my mind up. I need a new set of tires and figured it was time for rims while im at it.

tossing up between the carbon fibre RS rims from ultrex

http://www.ultrex.com.au/ultrex-rs-c...ims-p-340.html

or Rota CE28N copies from prospeed racing

http://www.prospeedracing.com.au/pro...er-Silver.html


The last option is to get some genuine real versions of either one of those but only if I can get a decent price somewhere. Opinions and suggestions? they are for a blue 06STi

I know I double posted but I didn't think my post got viewed as it was the last one on the last page.

For my new my00 when I buy one I'm going to get one of these rims... I'm not sure which ones and maybe you guys can help decide what looks better.

Option one: enkei EKM3's...





Or speedy lite fin's


here they are on phizzle's my99 he's selling



I like the look of both but the speedys look mad on the wrx, not as easy to tell with the enkeis but they do make the mazda look better.

I usually look at rims at http://wheelworx.com.au/ as they have a massive selection. Then email them for a price quote. Then I look around and call local places (most have to order stock in so its easier to phone asking for a specific brand) and get prices from them. If none of them can do a good deal I'll probably get them shipped from wheelworx in SA.

Or you can get from here http://www.vividracing.com/catalog/i...tu1nqkhei7g5b2. Its an American site but the prices are much cheaper (only looked at rims) even with the approx $500 shipping. But I'ld rather pay more for something sold by an Australian company even if its interstate.

Send wheelworx an email, I usually get a reply by the next working day. Don't submit online inquiry though as I never got a reply from that. They do look pretty sweet on the Audi.
