  • @honeybadgerwrx
    @honeybadgerwrx 11 місяців тому +2

    I dig the look for sure. Not super stoked about how heavy they are but alas this isn't my car either. Lighter wheels help with rotational mass and allow for better use of the power the engine is spitting out.

    • @rookie__pilot
      @rookie__pilot  11 місяців тому +1

      I 100% agree! rotational mass is something I've been trying to keep low, with now ps pump, or ac, aluminum flywheel in the future. If I have the budget for It later on I will definitely go with a lighter wheel.

      @rookie__pilot rpf1's for the win. I know they're overplayed but there's a reason. They are reasonably priced and light as heck. Put them on my 2020 outback XT and shaved off 5.5 lbs per corner versus stock.

Now I'm on 17x9s and couldn't imagine anything smaller. Mine stick out juuuust a bit more, but there's more room in the 2nd gen. Also, never seen that coffee before, but will have to check if it's available here in SoCal. Keep it up!
