Pretty stoked to finally have a set of my all time favorite wheels.

Big thanks to VR Wheels. Great work, fair prices and quick turnaround.

Should be on the car by next weekend!

Nice wheels! I had them on my old STI and are awesome looking wheels. Just make sure clean them thoroughly, they tend to build up rust.

Thanks! I'll definitely keep that in mind. The bolts look like they'll be a pain to clean.

Went fairly conservative. Sacrificed lip size for easy fitment. Trying to avoid camber arms but will use them if that's what it takes to dial in the stance I want. 19x9 +38 19x10 +45. Probably will run some 5mm spacers.

Looking forward to seeing yours. Still not sure. I think I need new valves if I want to run tpms. I don't want to have to use those bands to secure them. Which route are you taking for tpms?

Which ones did you purchase, these ones?
http://www.workwheelsonline.com/tpms001.html

Also, where did you get your tpms, or are you reusing your stock ones? Haven't mounted them yet. Don't have too much free time, will try to get some tires tomorrow after work.
