Which wheels would look better on my BH?17"or16"UPDATED PICS

[SativaMan04]

Which would look better on my white BH? I have an option to buy either of these wheels. I need help on which to buy.

05 LGt 17" or 16" JDM RS impreza wheels.

Better yet does anyone have pics of a BH with 05LGT wheels or JDM RS Impreza wheels?

Personally 16's look small on Gen 3's even with a lowered stance.

Those 17's though are not my style. I really like the look of the JDM B4 17's in their fancy weird green/bronze

17". Just look at sansMYSTI, MRLancaster, Guigz...etc etc.

17's or bust. Anything smaller on a car that big will look silly.

Thanks Guys!! I agree. I think I was just going to buy those wheels on an impulse.(Maybe cuz they are JDM) Inside was telling me not too though. Plus I just found these wheels. I'm going to take a look at them later today. I was always fond of these and to my luck someone just posted it up.

-Chuck. Those are my favs!! Too bad they are way too hard to get here.

I'll pm him and see how much he wants. Thank You. I probably wont be able to afford it. 400 is my limit.

Ok. So I came up on a great deal on my search for wheels. I went on the local WRX forum I-club.com and found someone selling a set of 17" Prodrive P7's with 50% tread toyo Proxes4. Got it for $450.00. It sure feels good to drive on high performance tires again. Way better than the conventional tires I was driving on. High performance suits my spirited driving style. I just bought Yamazaki's Bilstein setup, so a drop is coming soon. Whiteline ARB with endlinks in the near future. I'm juiced! :smt028 It's so awesome, all my friends/family members that see my car say whooaa... ummm nice familyy car... hahaha ( I came from a bugeye).

I can't stop breaking my neck to look at her everytime I walk away from my car.

Im currently running factory reccommned PSI. 32F 30R. I'll do a tank of gas on this and records my mileage. Than i'll try 38f 36r. next fill up and see the diffrences in gas mileage.

I need to make a member's ride thread asap as well.

So you got the BH setup with the Giallas? I was thinking about gettin those, but school fees outweigh upgrades...those are gonna be a sweet set up!

I did. They were a great price. Cheaper than any other used stock bilstein setup and it came with lowering springs.

I think they're going to be sweet as well!! Although I couldn't find any reviews on the Gialla springs, Yamazaki gave me some specs on the spring rate and ride height.

"I have an aftermarket parts catalogue with some info on the springs. All it says is spring rate (F3.6~ / R5.4~) and amount lowered from stock Japanese configuration (F-25mm~35mm / R-20mm~25mm). And that's for "3rd Generation". It doesn't specify BE or BH. Or even turbo and non turbo (they have different weights in the front). I guess that's why there's a range in the stats."

I'm sure it will be just fine. Seems like it will be an inch drop all around.
