Guest lothar34 Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 I don't think any of those will fit on a Baja. I'd be surprised and a little disgusted if anything larger than 18" would fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subie Gal Posted August 23, 2004 Share Posted August 23, 2004 offset on those bling bling wheels = wrong and will not fit your car you need to get the right offset and bolt pattern... and IMHO chrome on any subaru is just plain wrong i love the turbo baja wheels.... i'd keep those!

Jman Posted August 25, 2004 Share Posted August 25, 2004 Oh, yeah, go for the chrome 20s--just don't get the spinners, those can get fawked up when you go off road, and besides, those are just so last week. And don't worry about the price--the dealer offers financing, so the sky is the limit. Not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be surprised and a little disgusted if anything larger than 18" would fit. you are right,. i went over to my local tire shop the other day and they said 18's would work and 19's would be stretching it, but 20's definately wouldnt fit. so instead of 20's, i'l get the 18 inch versions of the rims on the links i posted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie the baja wheels are too small and generic, i want something at least in the 17 to 19" range. 18s should do. and whats so wrong about chrome on a subaru? chrome = TYTE!

Take some advice from someone that has been there done that, got the t-shirt. You are going to look back at your college years when you are paying your students loans. Over the next 10-20 years and think to yourself, damm I am still paying off that Baja and Wheels and I graduated back in 20xx. Save you money, use the money for school so you will get out of school and not have huge monthly payments. Fancy new cars are way overrated, I hate driving my wife’s new Honda. Way to much pressure to park far away so no door dings and such.

spanky_pete Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 I'm guessing that the weight of those rims + tires will end up being more than your stockers. Keep that in mind, your bling is going to cost you in the performance market. Then again, if it was me, I'd go get a Turbo back exhaust for it.

mtsmiths Posted August 26, 2004 Share Posted August 26, 2004 but an old played with cars (and boats, and airplanes) all my life old fart. If you put fancy bling-bling wheels on a Baja you will look like a bloody idiot. The rice boyz will look at you and think "WTF are those pimp wheels on that ugly pick-up for?" The Subaru users will look at you and think "WTF is that fool doing with those big fancy wheels and stupid skinny tires ruining a good off-road, all-weather car?" The car dealer is already looking at you and thinking "SUUuuuuucker!" There's a few SUV's up here in NW Montana riding on pimpmobile wheels/tires. Trust me, everybody looks at them and thinks "What an effing fool!". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
