No idea mate.
I've been trying to find out since the day I got them.
They were gold and the dealer had them kicking about for a while due to a buyer dropping out of the deal. Hence, I got them for a bargain £300.
He mentioned they were italian and gave me a name but I've now forgotten. I did google everywhere at the time but no luck.
They are specific Subaru 05> fit at 8.5x18 ET42,5x114 and the correct centre bore i.e no spigot rings required.

Thanks for the comments guy's
Regarding the Teins, they seem fine mate.
The car had standard springs when I got it and they were firm but very moob/boob bouncey, if you know what I mean.
Swapped to Prodrive and they were still firm but lost the nasty boob and vomit inducing bounce / oscillation.
The Teins feels very very close to the Prodrive's, so I am dead happy as the ride feels the same yet has dropped it to where I want it.
They are genuine items sourced from Alyn at ASPerformance. I noticed there are some copies about off Ebay, so maybe they are giving Tein a bad name.
I can't go any lower though, as this is my drive clearance !!!!!...and that's an 11 year olds fingernot mine!!!!!!

Never seen wheels like that on a Hawk. Really like the style but would love to see what its like in silver. Im not a fan of white, anthracite or black wheels.

Cheers, you are totally right but at £160 i just cant justify it the now. I was looking at 20mm ones, im not 100% sure i want to put them on as they are never a recommended thing to do. However the wheels do sit too far in the arch especially at the back. So if anyone has 4x20mm hubcentric spacer lying around that they wish to sell let me know
