Anyone know where to get custom wheels made?
So I want the 2007 BBS STI wheels....in an 18" version....with a dark charcoal/chrome finish.....and with the 5x100 bolt pattern so that they will fit my 2012 WRX. Does anyone know of a wheel similar to this? I am thinking I might have to get these made...you think BBS will do it?

That would be so ridiculously expensive. Think ~4k or more. |

Find a used set then find a local reputable shop that can customize the wheel to how you want it. Of course each process will mean more money, from buying a set, from getting the size, the color and so on. The color might be a standard color so maybe they won't charge you an extra cost for that.

Don't you guys think those wheels in an 18" or 19" would look bad a**. I wonder if there are any wheels out that look similar?

Has anyone put the GD STI wheels on a GR STI (through the use of adapters, etc.)? |

He is running an "adapter" or a 25mm bolt on spacer to make them that flush. The pic was more for reference for the OP to see what they would look like given he did run an adapter. The 04 wheel would look terrible without a spacer

Don't the new WRXs come with wider wheels than the '04 STi did? So it wouldn't really look stock.

Not even close. However, the 04 BBS will be around 6-7lbs lighter. |
