I was quoted $230 USD recently to have a set of rims shipped over here!!

I don't think you can get Time Attacks in your stud pattern/offset anyway....they are all 5x114.3 from what I've seen, which means they will only fit 05-07 STi.

doesn't mean u can't buy some wheels and get them painted in the Time Attack colours. They are just normal Work wheels with that colour scheme. Surely someone can do it...

can u customise rims that u already have? like if u want to adjust something on the rim? or will it make the rim weaker and break?

What do you mean?

If you paint, powdercoat, polish, anodize or chrome a rim, it doesn't make it weaker.

If you powdercoat a magnesium rim, it can weaken it because of the heat involved. I dont think anyone on this forum owns a magnesium rim, so thats not going to be a problem for most people

sorry bit vage with wat i meant. i meant if i wanted to shave some material off the rim. ie like below in the pic.

instead of having it raised at the edge of the rim. can someone like allianz rim repair smooth it out?
