I do quite like that look you've got going on there, but why did you want to replace the originals?

I was under the impression they wouldn't fit as the offset was wrong/different?!? They look great.

Damn - missed out on a set.

I've got MY01 WRX 17" on which suit my MY99 though.

Just my humble opinion but I prefer the look of it with the speedlines

Attu

They fit fine, the problem is with the original tyres but if you fit 215/40/17's they are ok.
The reason i changed the wheels is because i want to upgrade the brakes to 4 pots (only got 2 pots at the moment) and 4 pots wont fit behind the Speedlines.
i do like the Speedlines and was going to hold out for a set of RB5 wheels and get them coated gold but these came up at the right price

It all makes sense now Bugging that the speedies don't clear 4s

Simonconner

V.nice, think they suit the car.

Hopefully getting hold of a classic scoob soon, and was thinking of doing the same.

DeerHunter

the my/sti 01-03 wheels look better on the classics!

i had a silver set on my my97 , 10 times better than speedlines!

Creepy

Well I think you're been ripped off, I have a MY99 with 4pots and the very same speedlines and they fit perfect... even have 5mm left between the rim and the caliper....

Rob D

Creepy, the above Speedlines do not fit over the 4 pots as Andy has said, I'm sure you don't have the same.
The only similar wheels were the RB5 Speedlines that you could fit over 4 pots.
I think the new STI wheels look cool

I Have the above speedlines.. and they do not fit over 4 Pots - FACT!

There are some that are slightly different that do though if i remember correctly

Attu

I think there are some Legacy wheels that look the same as the Speedlines that do fit over 4 pots and the RB5 wheels also look like the Speedline Supertarismo's but 4 pots dont fit under the original Supertarismo's .....ive tried

Andy

Creepy

Well, if someone can explain how to set a pic in this, I will prove that I have the same Speedline wheels with original 4 pot calipers.
Why should I lie about this, its just a fact...

Rob D

Creepy, send the pic to my email and I'll post it for ya.

Creepy

Here is the promised pic with Speedline Chrono and 4pots...



Cheers, Creepy

Your tyre looks bald

Creepy

Yeah, I took the pic with 600-800 resolution, and it's a bit whobbly. But there is still 5 mm left. The outer edge is a little worn due to heavy cornering....

Creepy

DeerHunter

as far as i can make out they are the rb5 later type of speedlines. the gold ones fitted to my my97 would not fir over 4 pots and i can tell u i tried!

Attu

The Speedline Chrono's are an after market wheel avalble from tyre/wheel dealers where as the Speedline Supertrismo's were just for the Subaru avalable from subaru.
They look the same but probably have a different offset to the Subaru wheels.
As said before Supertrismos dont fit over 4 pots.....you havnt got Supertrismo's so your lucky
