just wondering as i had 215\40\17 tyres on my my97 with my01 alloys

sti has 225\40\17 std gold wheels.

Thinking i like the std silvers more (looked better than gold speedlines on the classic) and want to fit them on the sti.

So easy question - can i just fit the 225\45\17 bridgestones on the std alloys or will the tires not fit due to the difference in width?

 

dont know about the tyres fitting but arnt the my01 wrx wheels 7 x 17, the sti's are 7.5 x 17

Deerhunter,

I think you may have a problem fitting the 01 wheels to Sti 8 as they may not clear the Brembo brake calipers !! Not 100% on this so try one on and see.

The STi 7/8 wheels have a different offset to clear the Brembos.
