If you have 4 pot brakes then super turismos won't fit. The RB5 wheels have a slightly different spoke design that has a 'kink' to allow 4-pot clearance. There was a run of anthracite super T's with an ET48 offset. These will fit the 4-pots as they were designed for prodrive for the Forrester. These are also rare as hell and I'd pay pretty much any amount of money to get my hands on a set

There are 2 makes of super tourismo.

The Speedline Chrono AKA Prodrive Super Tourismo is the one Saxo Boy is refering to.
(I sold a set last year, as they didn't fit my brakes, and I couldn't find any of the Forester anthrecite ones, or RB5 wheels)

OZ racing also make a Super Tourismo (I have a 17" set of these on my car now) that do fit with the 4 pot brakes. These are, I believe available in 18" as well, whereas the Chronos are not AFAIK.

Unhappy

My real beef in all this is that speedline haven't released a range of chrono's/turismos to fit the MY99+ impreza! Whenever I see a scooby wearing these boots I can't help but feel that the car and alloys perfectly compliment each other! Surely the MY99+ market is strong for them

LOL, blitz those were the actually alloys I was after but the guy sold them to you because you're local and he couldn't be assed sending them. He made up a bull**** excuse [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] More fool him I say because I would have paid pretty much any amount of money to have them (happily upwards of £6-700)

Look after them please and enjoy

Sorry I know how much you wanted them, but they were practically on my door step and could not refuse.
Hope you find some near you soon.

YES OZ SuperT Evolution Golds (they are made in Japan if you don't know it) fit under almost every brake kit available for pre MY00, I had them on my MY00!
These are the wheels I'll buy for my new MY03 also, have a look Here.
Although I have been told from Subaru service that ET48 is problem for Imprezas and promotes steering traimling etc, is that true?
I believe 48 offset is the lowest limit someone can use to his Impreza without problem, otherwise OZ that produces all Prodrive wheels should use something like 52-53.
