Do they exist or do I have to buy something and get them painted?

I quite like this:

but want it in white.

Any ideas?

Other wheels that came in 5x100 pattern were the Subaru Liberty (not sure about the Impreza) and a few Celicas (ST162?). Most "rally style" wheels are in white so I'm guessing there should be a few for the Subaru stable. Did you ask about the OZ Cronos I found at Upgarage? The design looked good.

I reckon you could just get them custom powdercoated once you buy a set of wheels you like.

I like that clean look of them, and I also like the look of the wheels you posted. I'm not sure if they're what you're looking for?

I do like them, but I am looking for something with a lip. Also something in 5 stud (5x100).

Yeah, I agree on the lip. I like the wheels you posted because they're black with a silver lip. On mine that would look alright I think

Both of these are quite nice, I'm starting to think about shadow chrome or something a little darker.

Upgarage is a drift workshop in South Western Sydney. They import wheels and other JDM parts every 3 months or so, and while most are Jap fitment, a few sets happen to be 4x100 or 5x100. They bring in the occasional Porsche wheel sometimes.

Website is http://www.upgarage.com.au/. I'm sure Perth has a similar shop, as there's a drift scene there too.

Reality is I probably wont buy wheels in white, if anything powdercoat/paint will be the way to go. Although I am still keen on white, I wouldn't mind a 'spare set' of whit rims in 16" for bashing about with. using on track days etc etc

For me THE wheel I want:

Hey Man, Yes I Think Lenso Sells Wheels Quite Similar To That Style. Hav A Look At Extreme Wheels Close To Campsie On Canterbury Rd. Or Even Under Car Specialists Lakemba Also On Canterbury Rd. I Know Its A Bit Of A Drive From Campbelltown, But They're Probably Ur Best Chance Of Finding These Wheels For A Gd Price. N Yes Definitely In White, As They Can Be Oredered. Not Always What U See Is What U Get. Hope This Helps.
