Good choice putting $4,000 rims on your 1990 Honda Civic. That's like Betty White going out and getting her tits done.

I want a legacy with something like that on it :lol: And I am serious. Thinking of a change. Probably won't be anytime soon, unfortunately. My GF is talking about a white Legacy and I was thinking of a Red, Dark Grey, or Black. Probably go with Black or Dark Grey this time around. I wanted the white one but she is hard pressed on that color so of course I make her happy...or we could have two white legacies...haha.

Yeah, my wheels should fit fine...tire size, not sure about that one.

they do. the FXT Sport had them as stock which means you can order from any dealer (as long as 18x8 and FXT offset is ok). The LGT fitment was 18x7.5ET53 (same fitment as '04 STI but in 18"). And, yes, the clear Brembo's.

I was talking about the entire real thing. i don't care as much about wheels as I do about available transmissions. :lol:

da! the "Legacy GT Spec BTuned by STI Edition" wagon is a fabulous car. Too bad they sold for $40k in JDM and ADM-land.

Mine was the only year Forester Sport XT that came with the STi wheels but they were 17x7 and don't clear brembos (otherwise, I would have kept them :wink: ), not 18x8...you can get the real deal FSTi 18x8 48+ from japan only as aftermarket option. Very expensive to import but a couple people have done it. I will be just fine with my makeshift inexpensive Rotas :wink:

Wish they sold that "Legacy GT Spec BTuned by STI Edition" here in the states...I would be all over it.
