Thanks to all the guys who checked out and offered opinions on my post last week concerning which wheels I should get.

I went with the Rota Torque's in 17 X 8, steel grey, fitted with my old beat-up Falken Azenis.

I will keep my stock STi wheels for everyday use. They just got a new set of Pirelli Pzero Nero M+S in 235/45/17. Sidewalls are nearly as stiff as my race Azenis. Great traction especially in the wet where my Azenis where a bit hairy. These Pirelli's will also make a good tire in wet conditions for AutoX and lapping at the track. Overall its a great tire and would highly recommend to anyone. (Its the best all-season tire I've had....and I get a about a new set of tires every 8-13 months.)

Weeeeee

Good choice Davis. They look sweet...are they the same size as stock? Did you get grippy tires or winter tires?
