Something around 8-8.5 with +40ish offset is a good place to start. There's a ridiculous amount of offset/width fitment info for Subarus on the web if you go looking.

Why would you recommend more power mods to somebody who isn't planning to do any track? Where else are you going to use it?

Ah yeah the top picture does look quite blue, I didn't look closely enough at it.

2nd pic is heading towards a greenish colour, not unlike the colour pmu uses on brake pads, that's what I'm after.

To achieve that look yes, you would need to change your suspension to bring the ride height down. I suspect some camber is involved there too.

You will also need to roll your guards.

I think they look pretty good, I would take them over stock bug rims. Rash doesn't look bad in the pic.

I don't have a lot of love for the stock bug wheels (though they look tidy enough), do you have any pics of the superleggera on your car?

I went a bit more conservative in the end. The grids are nice, but with the high offset I need in the 08 they didn't have enough concaveness (sp?) to pull off the look. Picked up some gforces in...
