i agree with the swap not being such a stretch...but the bbs on the sti are forge quality...sure it says sti on them....other than that it is a nice wheel....side note, back to what i had said...other wheels on cars are very good quality....so i dont mind getting the g35 wheels as a cruzing wheel.....like i said...almost alike the advans

who cares if they are sti rims.they look bad *** they are still nice bbs rims.Just because there is a rivalry doesent mean the sti sucks in every form.i think the sti body style is super sick looking!Also vw owners always put porsche,lamborghini,benz and bmw rims on their cars and they look super good.Its not like they now think they have a porshce because of the wheels

Had a GLi for my last car, the rims are either RH's or CHs I can never remember. I have always wanted to use those rims on my car for summer cruising rims.

And to EvoIX4me, your pretty ignorent if you think that BBS's are a discrace to your car. Don't hate because your honda can't pull off BBS rims.

I about fell off the bed laughing at this! I would rock the gold STi rims JUST to be able to say this and **** off the childish Evo owners.

you guys are all idiots using the argument, "would you put chevy wheels on a ford? corvette wheels on a mustang, etc"

that is not a apples to apples.

we're talking about BBS wheels. not subaru wheels. BBS wheels. BBS is one of the most prestigious wheel manufactures for our scene.. If it fits, its fine. ITS A BBS WHEEL. its not like your trying to put subaru legacy wheels on your evo. ITS A HIGH QUALITY BBS WHEEL that just so happens to have a tiny STi in the molding.

But those cars share almost identical offsets. The evo and sti is somewhere near a 10 mm different.
