Worth £500 easily I completely agree. GLWTS.
the reason 05 sti on is different is the widetrack blob and hawk sti have 114 pcd
the 100 pcd which these are fit 100 pcd cars i.e blob hawk wrx and pre 05 blob sti.

do you have any paperwork to show these are only 5months old as it will mean they will have just over 6months warranty left on them

Can't believe people are bleating about £50. I paid £400 for a set last week and collected from Derby. I live in the Dudley area if you want something enough then you should always travel to buy. I can see why retro wants these collected as cash talks. Correct me if I'm wrong. Also if you collect them you can view/inspect them before you commit so it's a no brainer. Scoobynet is not the site it once was where agreements and commitments to buy we're honoured. Rant over. Again I'll say worth £500 ALL DAY LONG

I might be interested in the coilovers, I'd like to know the spring rates and if the top mounts are the later rubber type? I can collect by the end of the week.

the spring rates are written on the side of the springs, and you can take a pic of the underside of the rear shocks and the rubber mount will be visable

If they're BC's the spring rates available tended to be 8/6, 5/4 or 4/3.
If it feels bloody hard you've probably got the 8/6's .

In all fairness to one of the earlier posters dude, not wanting to stir things up, you advertised 2002-2007, but all he was asking was whether they would fit his car, and he was correct to ask, given that these would not, as stated, fit later widetracks.

However what people may also be interested to know is that Apex Performance sell different bottom mounts for these shocks so that they can fit them to the widetrack versions - I believe they retail between £80-100. Just thought you might find that info useful as it increases your prospective market

GLWTS!
