They look okay except I don't like wheels that have dish, and then the face sticks out towards the dish...

i wonder if it from the guy whos been trying to sell them on eBay for ages?
i reckon they're pretty nice if you get them for them right price. considering Racing Hart no longer exists their wheels will be becoming increasingly rare which is cool too

Good guess! Seeing as they have been up for ages I'll try and talk him down.
Half the reason I'm considering them and I doubt you'd see them on another forester...
One drawback though... I just bought a new set of tyres...
225/45 on a 8.5 rim, that im not sure off...

no sure if you remember how my current wheels look Chris but they're 18x8.5 +35 with 225/45/18's. no where near the guards or any hint of scrubbing etc.

Already checked all that out 
Going off stock specs and current specs all should be good... 
I sent the guy a price just waiting on response. See how we go, could have some new wheels by next week.

Busy weekend... I scored a set of 06 leather impreza rs seats at a bargain of a price and through one of my old mans contacts at pirtek a provent 200 and oil specific rubber hoses...
Coming up to winter, leather is super cold so I transfer my seat heaters and came across a cracked bolster on the drivers seat...
Expanding foam repairs
Heaters in...
Provent 200 - Might need to change the mounting location as the top fouls with the bonnet a touch.

What do we have here from our friends in UAE that I received last week...
New monsoons to replace broken ones and a set of window gussets to replace the torn ones...
Managed to replace the gussets over the weekend. The passenger side one was a PITA. 2 of the 3 screws holding the mirror wouldn't budge, ended up ***** the heads even using the correct #2 screwdriver... So I had to pull out the mirror and gusset in one go...
Extreme times call for extreme measures... (unfortunately I didn't take any pictures) Seeing as the original gussets were going in the bin, I pulled out the trusty angle grinder and made cuts to where the yellow lines are to get access to the screw. I then cut slots in the screw heads with a dremel and removed with flathead screwdriver. Screws have now been replaced with bolts for ease of removal when required.
Monsoons will be put on once I finally wash the car!

Those monsoons came a long way. Couldn't you find any in the country?

They were about $40 cheaper than local and the gussets were nearly half the price than local even with shipping
