17" or 18" make your brakes look tiny. 17" give you a better ride but 18" look better. 18" are better off if you get the suspension lowered slightly at the same time. 17" will make you want 18" but 18" are dead easy to kurb due to their small tyres.

They're not uncommon - you should be able to get them from any Subaru dealer. I paid about £600 for mine IIRC.

Here's something different for you. This is my old MY00 on 17" Raceline RL7s - not sure if you can still get these, but I never saw many other Scoobs with these fitted.

Question Andy C

Was that picture taken in the Isle of Man?

It looks like the Mountain road in the background?

Ashley: yes, I do have loads of pics of my car. I'll dig some out over the weekend.

Yes, the pic was taken on Scooby Island, during the 2002 SIDC trip. More pics from that trip are here and there are some from last year's event here. Roll on the 2004 event!

The car is lowered using Prodrive springs and shocks, But it was already done to the car when I bought it!
