Next spring, new rims and tires are in the budget and so far my wife likes the Konig Glide. I'm leaning towards something with a polished lip and would like to see what others are running. I'm planning on going with 17" rims and all season tires. I can't afford high dollar and I'm not so concerned with weight, I just want my ride to look sweet so post some pics or urls of those rims and help me out. Thanks.

What color car do you have?

Sorry, I was thinking my car info would show up under my user name like another forum that I won't name here. I'm driving a WR blue wagon.

They make Rota Sub-Zeros in black with a polished lip. Can't find any pics, but I think they look great.

I've seen anthrasite wheels on a WRX sedan and wagon. It makes the car look very nice, especially with tint.

here is a pic of bronze with a polished lip. i hope subydude doesn't mind me using a pic of his car.

That looks beautiful!

Go to www.subydude.com . He has a full selection of Rota's, I personally like the Tarmacks.

Thanks again for all the great ideas, post more pics of cars with polished lip rims!

link doesn't work.



anthracite or gunmetal looks best on wrb imho. here is a pic of wrb with 18" VOLK LE-37 (i have always liked these). props to verdugo for a clean ride!

I still like the look of a darker rim, are the Volks anthracite or gunmetal?

i'm not for sure....what's the difference?:confused:

I have revolution rzx's in black (true black not anthracite or gunmetal grey) with a polished lip on a silver wrx and they look great. the look is not for everyone, but that's kinda what I was going for. No pics of the car yet, but the wheels look like the old RS wheels on steroids. If you want a pic email me and I can get you one.

LOL, let's see, one color is gray and the other color is...well, gray :) The hard part of all this is that most of these wheels look completely different in person when compared to the pics. Then, with the Rotas, no one seems to carry any of the wheels I like in all the colors, even the Rota web site doesn't show all of the wheels. When the time comes to plunk down the $$$, I hope I have my favorites narrowed down, but most of the rims in most of the colors look pretty good.
