in finland law permits you to use special winter tires from december to march, so everyone has two sets of wheels/tires. only good thing you get (+ extra grip:) is that you can do more experiments with alloys since you must buy them anyway. also that is good selling point for your better half :)


i think that they actually look real nice, but first impression was: what have i done :bang

I quite like that. I nearly bought gold wheels for my car. But as mine is blue I thought it would look too subaru-esque.

Looks nice on red tho :thumbup

Is it just me or with a quick glance does it look a little Porsche-esque? i.e. Red car with Gold Alloys....

Not necessarily a bad thing....

i´ve seen hints of subaru in it, my brother said that it looks like historic class rally car, and yes; theres also something porche-esque in it! i first considered gold ultraleggeras for summer, but since they only come with et48 they are usable in coupe. also price was really high, but i really wanted to see what it looks like with gold so i hunted those down. thanks for comments :thumbup

size is 205/55/16 studded Nokia Hakkapeliitta 4, eyp, it´s the same nokia that makes cellphones :) to be precise; they sold their "rubberware" division when company decided to focus solely to electronics, but brand still lives on.

in theory grip is better when driving in snow with narrow tires, but i have not noticed that big difference. it´s nicer to keep original driveability and look and forget the laws of physics :) your right bro: i have read that you are little troubled with the amount of snow you got there. me and friends call these conditions "subaru weather" cos all that you need for big grin is snow and 4WD :mrgreen:
