There's a few on ebay, for example

Did spot a set of 3 that came off a blob eye? Could be 100 pcd?

Still considering pcd adaptors from cdf racing so I can fit sti enkei 114.3 alloys to be honest. Some people say they are a bad idea but I can't see why it is any different than running wheel with a lower offset.
Hmm.

You see some people track spacers with no issues. Although I know that the correct pcd is best and I'm going to give Saj at japperformance a call today to see if I can negociate some tyres thrown in with the wheels he has.
Fingers crossed.

I've read some reviews on them and apparantly they are not too bad. But for the sake of £300 for Vredesteins, I think I might be changing them. Then once ive sold my mint wrx alloys with goodyear f1 tyres, I reckon the whole lot will have cost me £550. Not bad eh!

Will do fella. Have a feeling I will need to lower it but I'm sure it will sit better on Turini's than XXR 527's.
Then I will have to see if silver wheels on a silver car are ok or if I need to go anthracite. I can get them painted for just £140 (mates rates) so we will see.
Cheers for steering me clear of the pcd adaptors guys, was so bloody tempted.
Never thought a set of Turini's would come up so cheap.
Stupid question but can I use the standard wheel nuts with these wheels or do I need specific ones?
Mine are a tad rusty anyway so it's just an excuse to buy new ones.
Mags, where are you?

Turinis should arrive tomorrow. I'm like a kid at Christmas.
Just deciding on tyres and then they will be fitted.
I take it the standard wheel nuts will be ok to use for now?

Cheers Siv.
I will see how the look. Just need to let the dust settle on my bank balance before I spend any more this month!
Will definitely be getting some wheel nuts though. I prefer the look of the 'tuner' style nuts so I will if I can get them from somewhere.
Question is chrome or black?
Seriously, can't fecking wait.
I know they are only new wheels but I think they are what make a car. And with the tea tray wrx rear spoiler now swapped for an sti version, it is finally starting to look like an Impreza.
