I cleaned my PFF7 Flowformed wheels that are made by Speedline for Prodrive today but Jake said they look like Halfords spec which has upset me and now I want new Rims.

I wanted to wrap the Car Matt Black and go for Green Wheels but Jake wont let me.

Was thinking of going a dark anthra colour on the current wheels or sourcing a different style?

Any suggestions? Bear i mind the Brembo Caliper is a fat barstard and clearance can be an issue.

This is how they look on car :



Cleaned them up today :

He's right, they don't suit that shape Subaru.

Revolution milleniums on the other hand would look good.

yes going to a dark anthra is one option.

I wont be lowering it though, its running Bilstein/Prodrive WR Shocks with Eibach springs which are pretty much the best non coilover setup you can buy for the Money. It's really well balanced, shame its not 15mm lower though i guess.

What about a flat faced wheel? the thing that I dislike about them wheels is the spokes and how they stick out a fair bit, if you get what I mean?

Yeah I get you blud.

It's also hard to get hella flush and stance on a classic though plus I dont want to go down that route as nice as it looks.

Gotta be a motorsport style rim.

Im pretty sure the 17`s dont clear Brembos.

IIRC they did an 18 as an option but hardly ever see them come up for sale.
