Default New shoes MY06WRX Wagon

New shoes on today, sitting a bit like a truck but it will get springs in the next couple of weeks.

Sell some of your ground clearance on Ebay?

Nice choice of wheels mate, not a fan of wagons TBH tho.

Looks good - wheels suite the car.

Agree that it could do with a set of Eibach's.

The fitment/PCD on the wrx wheels has never changed so same as MY92-06.

Wheels look quite good... not so sure about the choice of tyres tho .

Tyres

it's something I didn't even think about when I ordered the wheel set. I didn't ask and they didn't say so I'm stuck until they wear out. I don't race or rally the car as the saying goes so I'm stuck for the next while ( no big problem ). The car is sitting high as I new it would. Those shots were taken just after fitting so it's dropped a bit after driving the car a bit.

Next step Eibachs

Deffo huge improvement on standard-Wagons are the best to have . All mods fit as on Saloon, but.... you can fit everything in a Wagon and still get the looks . Or go the sleeper route and surprise a few people . Something that can carry a fridge and can potentially ( excuse spelling had at least 6 pints ) beat most cars at the traffic light grand prix etc. I love them whhels -but agree needs to be a little lower. Loo forward to seeing this in the flesh...well metal.

Cheers Paul.

18"

Ride is a little harder than standard with more road noise but it's not too bad.
