    I have 17 inch Enkei Starfish rims (from Subaru Forester) currently. Thinking of switching to BBS Meshrika which I believe we're from Subaru Bugeye STI.
    Should I?

    Thanks in advance for your thoughts

    The BBS wheels look smaller than the other ones. It makes the first pic my favorite. But if I had to choose one or the other it's that, something about open spokes that pushes the right buttons for me...

    REVVL V+ 5G ?

    I don't like either of those.

    I vote for the mesh, the stars look heavy. Coming off a Forrester, they probably are on the heavy side.

    I put old school Subaru Imprezza STI wheels on our 2011. They're 16s, and weigh 16.7 lbs on the bathroom scale. The split spokes make the wheel look a bit lighter, appearance wise IMO. 20200215_174251-1.jpeg 20210820_115337.jpeg
