Those things are badass. I wish something like that'd work for me :(

Quote me now while I'm feeling good about it.  I've decided a WRX will be the vehicle that replaces the Jeep.  I can't see paying Evo prices or justifying purchasing a halfassed/beat to death example for the same asinine amount of money.  For an affordable, point to point, all-weather capable performance car, a wagon fits the bill.  A swapped wagon, even better.

Hah, OZ Rally rims are good.  Free is better ;)

I was eyeing your wheels in Case lot before i even knew that 'rex was yours...  I think i'm picking up a set of Prodrive P7's for my RS soon, but not for free ;)

The wheels have a long history.

The were originally Weasel's (Weasel 555 on nasioc)
Went to my friend Timdog when Tim bought weasel's 02 WRB.
Tim crashed the rex in the summer, and gave me the winter wheels cause he's such a swell guy.

The wheels were pretty rare to find, especially in 16's.  woot. 

I didn't paint them.

Gold is the original color.

update:  weasel got them from one of the guys who works at Fizz, and I ran into that guy at Fizz yesterday.  Apparently there are only 200 sets of these 16" wheels.

I've been looking around Saratoga to see these wheels but have yet to spot the elusive OZ Rallys :mad:

Thanks man!

Were you in the RS?  I heard a rumbling by and i looked in my mirror and saw a few stickers on a back passenger window.  I was thinking about turning around but I was on my way somewhere I think.

Eric, you're just gonna have to come down to 'Toga more often.  I really don't see that many people except for the guy with the SRP 02, and the blue STi with a CF hood and FMIC that parks in/around the lots of Phila street.  Is he on this board?

I see girls driving WRX's all the time... I even saw a girl driving an 06  STI a couple weeks ago... AND she smiled and waved when I drove by... I guess her husband bought the car for her.

Yeah, Im in Saratoga at least 3 to 4 times a week... my fiancee works on Broadway so I drive through pretty often - never on that side of 50, though, only down on the other side by that big ass hotel that seems impossible to get to.

Actually, I was down there today for like 4 hours.
