Stilo My stilo

[Koa]

Are the wheels real I am puzzled mate, they look really weird in the photo's, can't say I have seen them before

Nice Stilo otherwise though.

Not bad at all mate, what/if any other plans have you got for it?

Wheels are for real... came across Kahn alloys recently on some german websites Alloys suit the cars colour well...

Must admit, at first glance the wheels didnt look like Kahns ive seen...

Very nice Scottie and a Grey one to

the wheels are a very very close replica to the Kahn RSC found on range rovers and x5's, i just tell all my mates they are real, the real ones are £1400 for just the wheels, i got these as a wheel & tyre package for £620, the only difference to these and the real ones is that the centre caps on the real ones are i think 5 or 10mm smaller, because i parked up beside a range rover the other nite and look at them both. fools alot of people, sombody asked me tonight what kinda car i had, i told her it was a Subaru Stilo, 4wd, 350bhp, lol.

Thank-you all for your comments, i will be getting my 'baby' dropped about 30mm in the next few weeks, hopefully get some novitec sideskirts, windows tinted with light smoke all round, but that i am concerned about because the local constabulary have got a 'tint man' to measure the level of tint on the front windows, and as the stilo already has a very light tint, putting light smoke on the windows may make them illegal, i would like a novitec front splitter aswell, i am considering a spoiler but i think it may ruin the lines on the car, what do you guys think?

I like it

No I agree with you I dont think you should add a spoiler, looks gd as it is

Post some piccys when all the work is done

thanks mate, yeah i will post some pics when i have it lowered, it'll look a whole lot better, it'll make the wheels look bigger too , it'll take a while for me to get the work done, i just plan to buy 1 or 2 things a month.

Good decision at least u wont end up like me, spending money on mods but then no money to pay for some for front shocks and low pros which are desperately needed

I think the Stilo suits a spoiler, just a little subtle one, nothing massive and outrageous.........so i say get 1

 

[scottie2065]

if i am going for any type of spoiler it will be an abarth lip spoiler, although it isnt going to be any time soon, gonna spray the door mirrors myself. and maybe the door handles, still dont know about the window tints, only thing i am worried about is the law tellin me to take them off.

I do agree with you about the tints and the plod as i am in a bit of a quandry myself as whether or not to get it done would be a proper pain in the A to have to get the fronts removed i think that it also ruins the overall affect :bang: if the fronts are not done.

if the front ones arnt done and the back are, it makes your car look like a f**king van, i might just take the chance because tinting the windows makes alot of difference to the overall look for the motor and if they tell me to remove them i will take the whole lot off. they havent said anything to me about the plates, the lettering is only 40mm high :devil: lol

hi got a stilo 1.8 dynamic just changed the yhe wheels to 18" with 225/40/18 whats your tyre pressures set at also does the car feel slower with the 18" wheels. looks good though

hi, sorry i dont have a clue what the tyre pressures are, does the tyre not tell you? yes feel ALOT slower, i dont even try to speed anymore, i just cannot live with the fuel constumption if you put your foot down, lol, at the moment driving easy around town i am averaging 29mpg what kinda 18's u got? have you your suspension lowered yet?

I think your tyre pressure should be around the 34 psi mark and I dont know why you feel your car should be now slower with the 18" wheels on

 

[bobski100]

got my pressures at 35 front and rear whels are boss xtr get some pics up soon dont know if i can live with the slow speeds though only had them a week and thinking about selling them already got a stage 1 exhaust with dual exit noy touched suspension yet
