If I had $800-1000 laying around, I wouldn't care what wheels a car came stock with, I would just get a new set anyway. However, those who prefer to roll stock won't have much of a choice besides upgrading to BBS's (unfortunately no longer standard).

I like them.

IF someone has a set they do not want, send em my way!!

Besides, wheel weight on a street car is overrated. Give me a tough wheel anyday

How are those rare? They're the stock rim on the base 08/09 STI.
