DON'T GET GOLD! Every blue Subawho I've ever seen has gold rims.
I like the look of the Advan RZ(1st choice) or the OZ Ultraleggera(2nd choice). I would get bronze or gunmetal. They both look sick on octane blue.

i had black rims on my electric blue gts. that looked pretty mean to me.

your wheel choices: i would go with the advan rz. that's a lot more money than i would spend though... yikes!!

if you get the advans those are 9 inch wheels..same setup im looking at going with 18x9+35

from what ive looked at already it shouldnt be too bad since th offset isnt horribly low. if the one guy got thse 18x8.5+30 to run well on his car i dont see why another half inch and 5 higher offset wouldnt

um... RZ is quoted $2150 shipped.... i think is reasonable.... although OZ is $3XX each.. but with shipping that will be around the same price...

or you have any other suggestions...^^
