5-spoke solid rims!!

They are no longer in production. Every site I order from, I call em after a few days to get some info on it (since it wasnt shipped) and they say that they are actually not carrying them anymore. The wheel is out of production now.

that blows that they no longer makes these any more.
 
If you can still find them (some say they're discontinued) Rays 57F. Clean simple design and they only weight 17lbs for a 18". I think they go for $400-500 new but you can easily find a clean set of used ones on the Subaru forums for 1/2 of that with tires.

look at the Maxxim Ahead i got mine(17x7) for 87.25 each! So i dont think an 18 would be that much more.

ok cool!! thanks guys. I like those JIC's and a local place is actually giving them to me for pretty cheap and I will get tires and I think I maybe able to talk them into a mount & balance for free.

I appreciate all the input.

what color did you get? im thinking about getting the JIC ones too. when you get them post a pic. ive never seen them on a car.
 
I will do, I wont be getting them for another week (place has to order them). so it may be a while
 
Mazdaspeed RX-8 Wheels would be my choice... ;)
it even says Mazdaspeed on one of the spokes..
pure sex to me...

those speeds would cost me over 2000 to get. i will be getting the J-forces for 1650, shipped, mounted, balanced (with new tires).

I love those MS Rx-8 rims, but they are too steep for a college student

both made by rays, ya think they could be the same?

Very good observation. I think there's a JDM/UKDM Subaru STI rim that's just like the both of those as well.

My dealer had a set of them in solid Gunmetal color and offered to have them added to the sale price of the car for $500 each but for that price I'd get a set of 18x8.5 TE37s in gunmetal from Tirerack for the same price.

EDIT: Found them..

Ralliart has them for the Evo also

TE37's are sexy!
