    Get the 18's , I love them on my WRX, and they look even better than those piddly 17's. Spend a little more money on wheels actually made for the car, instead of those non-hubcentric wheels. I got Rota's because they're made for the correct offset on Subaru's.

    Spend a little more money on hub-centric wheels, they'll be better in the long run.

    The stock wheel is usually hub centric, which means the center of the wheel fits snugly exactly to the diameter of the hub.

    Many aftermarket wheels will have larger diameter hub openings. If you have matched the bolt pattern, you could just bolt the wheel in place, but you would be relying on the lugs to center the wheel (a lug centric set-up). To make your aftermarket wheel hub centric, you can get adapter rings to increase the size of the hub.

    What is the stock wheel size ? Going too big can screw up a lot of @##$ on a car.

    I am looking for a pair of rims. I am new to it all and it is mind boggling. I believe that two on your right are ADR rims. DO NOTGET ADR RIMS. The paint will chip and they prone to bending. I dont know about about EVOKE rims but anything and that price point has got to have problems. I am actually looking at some used pair of Enkeis right now.
