18" Anthracite P1's. I'm sooo trigger happy right now but would you guys please give me some reasons why these are so lame and I shouldn't get them.
(I have a feeling that Andy will say something about the tires )

thank you!

p.s. this is pseudo-technical so I'm in the right forum.

they are lame, because I can't buy them lol. go for them!

Sorry to say but those would be a great wheel choice and you'd be a foll to pass this up.. How much do they run new?

Hmm, well... although I've changed my pants on the ES100's...
I'll play the devilsAdvocate, and say this:
- You have great looking rims, without surface scratches (if I'm not mistaken)
- It's $810 you could spend on suspension
- These rims are scratched

Other than that...
- The treadwear on the tire looks great
- The rims look amazing
- They are $810 with tyres

Pros and cons either way ya look at it.
"But you've already made the choice...
you're here to understand why you made it..."

i saw those same wheels on a blue wrx monday. . .they were BEAUTIFUL!
fwiw, i say go for it. it's a great deal & you can always have them fixed on the cheap after you have them for a while.

I've got love for those wheels, charlie, but here's what I think. They're gorgeous, yes, but not brand new. $810 with tires rocks, but you know that Rota makes prodrive wheels don't you? [This is what I was told anyways] You can get a set of Rota's that look almost identical [because it's the same company] for $475 shipped without tires through Shawn [White 2.5 RS]. Or you can get the Work Emotion CR KAI's [the ones that I want] for $300 a rim brand new. Those are obviously pricier, but they're works! I think Mikey might be able to get you a better deal on the works, too.

I guess I would rather just have $810 to do other things to my car. Especially since you've already got black wheels! I'd definitely say to use the resources within the subaru community for cheaper parts before you buy. I've made that mistake twice already, and I won't do it again.

You guys are awesome! That's exactly what I needed to hear. Suspension comes FOERST now that power is out of the way. Btw, the endlinks are here! Airborne here I come.
