I like the wheels, very much. They are relatively light and
they look good. Even after getting all scratched up racing on
gravel, they still look pretty good, don't show the scratches too much.
The wheels are the easiest thing to help identify the model year of an
Impreza RS. In its first model year, 1998, the RS had gold 5-spoke
wheels that looked like the Subaru WRC wheels. 1999 brought the same
wheel design but painted silver. 2000 RS's had new 6-spoke
silver wheels, which I think are the best. Everybody has their
own opinions about this though. Quite a few '99 and '00 RS owners
have swapped their factory wheels for the gold '98 wheels.
