Default Pic Request - 17" Speedline Turinis on a classic

Hey guys, was wondering if any of you have got 17" speedline turinis on a classic? Or any other impreza would do I spoze. I'm just trying to figure out if 17's are gonna look too small or not. I've just been reading about them online and it seems some people have problems with the 18" ones rubbing? Not to mention the fact they are like £300 more than the 17's!! If I can get away with 17's then I will, but I'm thinkin they're gonna look too small.

Cheers guys

Cheers Rich! 17's don't look too bad at all actually, especially considering they're on standard suspension. Is the standard suspension on a Type R any lower than on a Turbo 2000? Or are they the same?

The 17s do look smaller than some 17s
but they look good in gold. 215/40/17 toyos are perfect.
They are 17x7 where as the 18s are 8 inch wide hence the possibility of them rubbing the arches,
good strong wheels as well
