Can't say I'm a fan of the gold wheels, but I do like the fit.

It may look better when the black is gone. I think you have too many colors interacting right now.

holy stagger setup batman!
Do Hankooks run small?
Stagger is stock actually
No, Hankooks actually run rather accurate to size, unlike some of the Bridgestones

stock on a 17" rim for an AP2 is.. 215/45-17 and 245/40-17 on bridgestones... so yeah nvm you are pretty close to stock hehe

was thinking ap1.. 205/55-16 and 225/50-16 correct?

255 rears were stock on the CRs.

thanks

Yeah I just don't have the money to get a new hood and get the trunk painted right now


The fit looks amazing considering they are 18" wheels!!!! i'm a 17" guy... dislike 18 but these are really great considering what they are

I like the gold wheels too. It was the STi with that combination that made it all so appealing.

Gilly is making good progress towards making that car his own

Stock on a 17" CR rim for an AP2 is 215/45 and 255/40, the CR got more tire than a regular AP2
The 225/50-16 size came from a Bridgestone S-02, which was a grosly incorrect sized tire, a 245/45 was a much more accurate replacement size
