This car looks terrible with low profile tires. I've always been a fan of the cheap black rims with big snow tires for winter.

Agreed. The cool thing about the XV, and what sets it apart from its peers, is that it has an off-road, dune buggy-like aesthetic. It isn't trying to be a Lexus RX, BMW X5, etc. To each their own, of course, but I think when swapping out the stockers, you should try to maintain that unique XV quality. Why they even put an ounce of chrome on these cars is beyond me.

Anyone want to photoshop some 2013 outback wheels on the crosstrek?

I like the XV but could not get used to the wheels - so I planned to paint the alloy sections black but I figured I would check the look first, and used black shoe polish that I dabbed on - a month later and it's still holding up fine - NOW I like the wheels!

here ya go, these are 16" steel wheels with hubcap off a '13 Outback. These are an inch taller than the stock 17s. I've been off road with them and love the taller side wall. My speedo is actually reading closer than stock but my odometer is off about 8%. When my speedo says 70 MPH, my GPS says 71.5 MPH. I may paint the steel wheels gold and mount some BFG T/A KOs.

^^ Need a close up from the side and I'd also like to see one along the side from the front or rear to see how the tires sit in relation to the side of the car. Does the car handle differently or ride differently with the different offset?

 

[STI Trek]

Rides/Handles better with the stiffer sidewall. A lil poke but plenty of clearance.

Love it...

STi Trek,
Clearance? is there no rubbing full lock?
