Winter Tire and Wheel Setup for the STi

Rota Tarmac IIs in gunmetal with 225/45-17 Bridgestone Blizzak LM-22s


Can't wait to try these up in the mountains when I go snowboarding next weekend.

I'm not ballin THAT outta control. . . .

. . . indeed. A TRUE baller would use their stock $500 a piece forged alloy rims for driving in snow.

I paid $650 SHIPPED for the Rotas. If they're ruined in 2-3 years from snow, ice, sand, etc. . . . I could care less. I keep the stockers for autocross only.

Ah, I need one of those things. You know... a job.

Your car always looks sweet. Especially when it's going through the snowy mountains.

There's a man who knows how to use his STi. Drive it up the mountains in the snow
None of this "I'm storing it and driving it when its nice out" crap.
Every STi owner should be like you.

Thanks, bro. . . . seriously, my first intent for buying the thing was, indeed, to USE it.

Just wait until the end of the week. Should have the roofrack on either tomorrow or Friday. Once Laurel's in the car with me, the snowboards have to hit the roof.
