Battle of the Grocery Getters
Submitted by Unscene on June 26, 2009 8:42 am25 Comments
This battle is for those who get the job done with some practicality. Both cars are rocking 18×10s, both wagons, both blue and both born in a Subaru factory. You be the judge:


vs.




















































I like the newer STi
im goin to have to give it to my boy Brandons 05 wagon. It took much more work to make those 18×10s fit on his than it did on the 08 wagon. I believe Brandon had to get front sedan fenders and custom rear fender pull along with a bunch of other alignment issues. Both are fresh though.
gr ftw
gr takes the cake IMO
Are those Rotas? Is rocking knock off wheels all of a sudden ok because theyre hellaflush?
I Vote for the GRB.
are you going to cry about it… show me the “real” version that can fit on his car? it doesn’t exist.
Not crying about anything, just asking a question, but I guess you answered it, Thanks.
Pretty sure that those are Rotas. The GRB looks dope.
GRB for sure…flushed advans look hot!!
regardless, both look great!
for stance I’d say the 05. But overall looks, gotta go with the newer STI.
my heart is with the old.
Old is awesome minus the Rotas..but I think the GRB might actually win..even though the wagon has Voltex Aero….
that sti hands down.
i dont even consider that thing a grocery getter pfftttt.
No car with Rotas will ever get my vote.
I voted old because of the wheels.
GRB
no rotas please
hey my car! haha i just won top scoob becuase all the hellaflush crew!
thanks dudes, and my wheels are legit advans, 18×10 +30 woooooot
Brandon for the win ! 05 wagon love ! Please let me explain why the 05 is rocking Rotas. You find us 5×100 guys a Volk … or Advan rim in 18×10 with a low 30 offset and we would buy them…. NO WHEEL MANUFAC makes an aggressive 18×10″ or even 9.5″ in the 5×100 bolt pattern ! Gotta use what we can get our hands on ! Logans car is sick… but i love the old !
The old one look hotter!!! hands down….the new one is sick though
All that crying about Rotas is pointless….as stated earlier all your “all bout down too” wheel companies don’t always look out for the “less popular” lug patterns when it comes to certain set-ups so why the hell would we go outta our way to buy their wheels!?
The old one LOOKS BETTER overall, hands down!!
I wont rock no bootleg J’s but I’ll rock the hell outta sum rota knock offs!!! lol
the old one FTW!
I just shed a tear looking at those pics. Although the wagon is long gone, I still miss the hell out of it. I’m just honored to have pics posted of my old ride and to be HellaFlush Approved! Props to the owner of the Blue Sti, I’m lovin’ your style. And much Mahalo’s to all the WFC for their support and help during the “wheel fitment” process.
I second Section09’s comment.
If they were real Volk sure….I’ll go with the GRB.
Volk DOES NOT make 5×100 aggressive rims… hence… ROTA
Faking the funk just to look hellaflush?
05 for sure but it needs to be SLAMMED
