Default Will these fit?
Will these fit do you think. Its the ET i'm thinking about as I think mine are currently 45?

They are the nearest I can find to to the Advan RG2's, but half the price.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/18x9-et30-5x11...item519005a386

I know they are back to gold, but I love the look of them, and they somehow wouldnt look right black.

mmmm... this is what I was thinking. Shame as I really like those. The only others I like are like steve ppp's, but then it will look like an RB320 wanna be, which I dont want.

I think it looks pukka as it is and you done a very good job of the paintwork on the wheels (for an estate agent).

haha, your welcome to try a couple of them on your car if you want to see whether you like it or not - they're pcd 100 and 114.3 multi-fit.

i have random moods with my wheels, sometimes i love them, sometimes i think theres just too many spokes!

Cheers scott - lol. I think it is just the space around the arches I dont like. I'm changing the springs so maybe with a 35mm drop it will look better. I do still like my wheels, especially now they are painted and came out well, so hopefully the springs will do the trick.

I think they look great on yours steve. I just dont want to be seen to be trying to create an RB out of and Sti, a bit like I never went STI with my WRX.

While we are on the subject of yours, I have to say it sounded and looked so nice all weekend. I think you've got it just right with it.
