Those are pretty good looking. I would have to check to see if they fit though. Still a bit more than I want to spend.

Why are you confused by the "Subaru Fitment" label of the listing, or the pictures of them on that white STi?

They're all variants of the BBS RG rims. There's different sizes and finishes, and I think some non-forged versions, but they're all the same basic rim. And they all look SWEET. Hello 22b rims!!

The RG-R are different from the ones on the white STi, those are the RE. The RE comes in 18X8, 50mm offset for the STi. The RG-R comes in 17X7.5, 48mm offset, or 18X7.5, 49mm offset. These are according to Tire Rack's website. I'm fairly sure you need a 8 inch or wider wheel with that high of an offset to clear the STi Brembos.

So whether or not the RG-R's fit doesn't really matter, since the RE's definately do.

khail19 · 2004-04-20, 09:00 PM

Yeah, the RE fits, but the RG-R is what Tyson posted to start with. And the RE is around the same price, $431 per rim wholesale. That's a good price on the RG-R, about the same as wholesale is.
