    Looking to get some rims on my 2012 Subaru Impreza. The car is silver. Does anybody know any place to get a good deal along with the tires? Also, any opinions on what would look nice are appreciated.

    Last time I was at Discount Tire, I was told by the manager that they price match any online or offline deal.

    Excellent suggestions thus far. :sarcasm:

    More info. Suggestions on size are appreciated, as well. Id post some of my ideas, but I'm currently mobile. Use the tire rack tool if you're bored and care to lend an assist!

    I went to rollo's off richmond and chimney rock. They were ok.

    How much are you willing to spend all together?

    You wont be able to get anything quality (rims and tires) for that cheap

    I went with the same intentions but spent 1500 easily

    Car enthusiasts would jump all over these kinds of threads and flame the OP for saying rims instead of wheels. But we're not a car forum are we?

    It depends on what kind of wheels you want. Do you want an aggressive, flush fitment? Or just want to slam on some wheels?

    If going for the fitment scene, look into the higher end tuner wheels such as Volks, Work, BBS, etc. Other wheel brands that the car scene likes to call replica wheels include Varrstoen and Rota.

    Well, I was going to say wheels, but I figured, "meh, this is Clutchfans!" I'm not looking for any really shiny wheels. I'm thinking 17's or 18's, probably 18's. I'm thinking a darker color to go against the silver color of the car, and I'm thinking maybe even doing gold colored wheels, or dark colored wheels with colored inlays.

    A few of the ones I liked didn't come over right in the images I posted earlier.
