You have to upload the pic to an online server like photobucket.com and then provide the link it gives you to here.

Check out subydude.com and look at Rota's. They're good quality, and not crazy expensive.

Yea im thinking about some tarmac II's but in the 18x7.5. I think ill either get silver or gun metallic.

Going up to 18"s makes your brakes look hella small, makes for a rougher ride, can increase your unsprung weight and stopping distance, and limit your tire options to more expensive models. I chose the +1 17's as a comprimise between the stock 16's and a +2 for cost, comfort, and damage reduction. Just IMO.

Also, without suspension upgrades, you can rub 18s. 17s look better on subarus anyways.

yea i am just worried with 17's the gap in between the wheel and the fender wont get filled up and will look to small but if you guys say so. And would you go with the tarmac II's or torques im undecided?

Well 18 inch and 17 inch tires will probably have the same outside diameter as the 18's would have shorter sidewalls. If you want to fill the gap in the wheelwell, then you have to drop the car.

sounds good as ill be doing with it is street driving the 17's with more tire would be better for everyday roads. What size tire are you running?
