Nice rims. I've always liked the way they look. When I get my RS, I'm contemplating Gold or White, depending on the color car I get.

What are the specs on the rims? offset/wieght/price? The tailights are interesting. I think it would look better with the Jap spec tails though. That is the Jap spec tails covered in whatever you used.

Did someone take a piece of the rainguard off of the driver's side window? It looks like a section is missing. Otherwise, good job!

The se7ens aren't super light by any means.. I believe the 17" weighs in at around 22lbs.. so some weight gain there unfortunately

Looks good though I really like the se7ens for looks! Taillights, I'll agree.. not for me

I'd love to see some gold Se7ens in 18" on a Subie!

Like he said, it's a 17x7 with a 40mm offset at 22lbs. They do ride nice. I had some rubbing at first on the rear wheels but I fixed that by taking off that rubber strip offf the rear fenders and rolling that lip in just slightly. The suspension is mostly stock but not the Eibach Pro Kit. I am going to get a set of ground control springs and lower it about 1" for a World of Wheels show. I am going to show the car off at the SCCA display. I will have SWRT logos on both side very soon.
The tail lights were done with vinyl with a layer of blue on top of a layer of black cause the blue was too thin and the light would come threw and look like ****. The color is ALMOST right on with the BRP paint.
I may end up taking it off.

As for the window visor. I was trying to get into my car with the door open and slipped on some ice and leaned up against it and broke off that peice. I have a new one coming. This was mid Dec. when we got a bunch of ice and snow.

The cool thing about the wheels is they were free. I won a $1600 gift certificate for BBS wheels in a raffle at a Audi Club driving school at Heartland Park Topeka road course. BBS of USA doesn't have anything that will work for the RS so they got me a set of Axis Se7ens. I have a 5th one as a spare.

Car looks nice. Tail light thing is interesting to say the least.

Where in the world did you find the rain guards for the Impreza?
