You read that right, 100% stock suspension 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STi with 9.5″ wheels! Quick background on the car/owner. Ben Wales has had a slew of Subarus over the years. What you see below is a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STI aka. Batscubie #5.

17x9.5 +44mm Enkei NT03+M 245/45/17

How To Be Aggressive Version 2.0

The car is a 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX STi with a full Zero/Sports goodies and Volk Racing TE37s. Many people inside and outside of the Subaru community are familiar with the car that I’m about to feature (for a 2nd time).

Soon to be Released Advan RS-D

The great minds at Yokohama have decided to add a new wheel to their already popular line up which is properly named Advan Racing.

New Prodrive Wheel!! GC-05K

This new Prodrive wheel looks great, pretty standard design seen from different manufactures with a little Prodrive twist. The sizing is great too. The GR STi has another 18×9.5 with the proper offset! The GD STi (5×114.3 anyway) has some great options too.
