Calling WRX STi 2003 / 2004 Owners in Surrey!
Hello - thanks for opening this thread. I am looking for anyone with an Impreza WRX STI from 2003 / 2004, with standard 17" wheels who live in the Surrey / South London area.
I own a Year 2000 Classic UK Turbo 2000, that I use for track use only and have fitted a brake caliper upgrade (StopTech). My wheels now do not fit over the calipers, and StopTech say that wheels from a 2003 WRX STI will fit giving the correct 2mm gap all round.
I am looking for someone who would be willing to help me with test fitting one of their wheels onto my car. This would obviously involve removing one of the wheels from their car (if fitted) and offering it up to my cars hub. This would need to be done at my home, as the car is off the road.
I have all the tools needed, would not do any of the work unless requested (not sure how people feel about letting others work on their cars etc) and would compensate with cash and or beer!
Would take aprox 10 to 20 mins. I live in Stoneleigh, Epsom (Surrey) if anyone would be willing to help!

Extra Info:
My current wheels are Prodrive 17 * 7 , ET52 Offset, 5 * 100 PCD.
StopTech say the standard WRX STI wheel will fit which is 17 * 7, ET55 offset, which is very high, but the wheel pattern of the spokes allows the correct fitting.
I have been looking at non Subaru wheels with a smaller offset, ie 45mm but on wheel size alone I cant accurately get a correct fitting, as above (ET55 with different wheel design should fit).
I have a template from StopTech for the kit I have bought that should be used on the wheel to check for correct fitting, but this may prove in-accurate, ie printer heads, manual cutting with scissors and paper is not very rigid.
