the tyres on that are 888's, 215/45/17'siirc (can check at home later to confirm), there actually the wrong size for a classic, should be 40's.

This is with correct size,



wheels wise, iirc they are subaru optional one, variation on super tourismo's. They wont clear brembo's though, well not front calipers, rear's are fine.

Not 100% sure. They were a £6250 option to add. I think a full set of pads is around £1200. Discs and pads are rumoured to be 10k plus
