18" mesh style rims please.

Too much black and the 19's make the brakes look too small, IMO. Love the car though.

Yeah I agree, definitely needs to be lowered and also needs brembo's.
They actually look smaller than the stock rims.

Black Tuned by STi rims would look good ?

Rob and Steve have always done the right thing by me over many years and EcuTek was well proven at the time.

I have a Liberty 3.0 litre '07 model and was just wondering if you still have the orignal rims and if so, if you are interested in selling them mate?

Wicked car btw mate, congrats, it's all class!

Unfortunately, the guards on the libs don't seem to be able to hold much rim width...?

Cheers for the opinions guys... Can't expect it to be everyone's cup of tea... But I think I will stick with them until I get some springs in and get it at a more appropriate height, then consider other options if I'm not 100% on it!

p.s - I still have the stock wheels, but am not interested in selling them at this stage, although it seems they are very sought after!

Yeah... but will only fit with certain offsets. And there aren't many brands that do them. I would consider the Advan Conniseur's for sale on here though... very tempted...
