Default Ninja wheels on STI, opinions...

My friend is trying to gather opinions on these wheels, he is deciding on 18" Katana Ninja wheels and wants them on his STI. I'm not sure about them because I thought Katana usually makes big chrome rims for SUV's and stuff, whats everyones opinion on this?

The stock wheels are better than those.... Why trade out BBS wheels for BS wheels?

Your friend should sell his car to someone who knows what they're doing.

Isn't the point of modding your car to UPGRADE?

Maybe he's a member of the Form over Function Krew.

He must have gotten the common sense delete option when he bought the car.

I used to laugh when people would replace the $1200 a piece BBS wheels on their evo MR with rotas.
