For steelies?

Steel wheels are heavier, which impacts ride and handling. They rust almost instantaneously in South Louisiana. They're actually not that durable; base-model Imprezas used to destroy them pretty frequently at rallycross events. (I think Subaru finally upgraded to alloys across-the-board.)

Their only real advantage is 1) they're cheap and 2) if you put hubcaps over them, you don't really have to worry about fricking them up.
