Rims to go with Flares!
So im purchasing the Karlton Fender Flares and these are the rims that have got my attention so far.... they are 18x10.5 +16 offset.. To my understanding this will fit nicely. For those not familiar with the Fender Flares. Here is a link with pics!! http://www.stancenation.com/2012/09/18/thick-sexy-sti/
VS-XX... OPINIONS PLEASE!!

Nah brah, 315's are perfect. You'll need some stiff coils though or a decent ride height. Since you have an 04' you're limited to wheel choices. 5x100 is out of my league.

great looking knock offs... They should go fine with your cheap coil overs. Please feel free to add some cheap tires while your at it to complete the look.
You might be able to cheap out a bit more if you go with some Rotas |

Trust me man! Do a hub swap first! 5x100 wheels are too limited. I feel like I've had the all!

with the increase in grip this will provide, your 5x100 bearings are going to flex like you wouldn't believe. this means brake knockback.
move to 5x114.3. |
