We asked those clever people at Tecnomagnesio to make us a wheel that fitted over the STi7 brakes.

Not only have these got 22B styling cues, are in ET48 (the perfect offest for the 01/02 chassis), TUV approved, you name it... but also, and most importantly, they fit over the STi7 brakes

They come in a Gold and Mercury (a stunning chrome type finish).

 

Saw them in the flesh on Wed, and they look even better than the piccies, make my new 18" F1s look weedy!

 

Very nice, but a bit too 'TSW Venom' for my likeing.

Not slagging them off, just not my cup 'o' tea

 

Pete,
How much clearance is there between spokes and STi 7 calipers?

How much for a set of 4?

As you might guess I'm curious as to whether a certain german brake setup might fit under these wheels, if of course the wheels would fit on a MY94 WRX Wagon (obviously need different tyres)

 

They are beasts Pete

 

Mobile

They would probably cover a Movit kit, by are 18x8 so will only go on a new shape car.

Scaramanga

Nothing weedy about F1's On account of the fact that Knowlsey threatened to kill my tortoise if I didn't sell him these (its a long story), I'm back on my F1's.

 

Do they protrude outwards much? Looks like they might be a bit suscpetible (sp) to kerbing?
Still like 'em though!

 

Wotcha' Pete.

Looking good! Have to agree they look a "tad" venom esque though! Prefer my Mims! When are you in Lloret mate? Ring me when you arrive old boy!

Cheers,

Mossman

 

I think it depends how you look at them - sometimes they look Venom-esque (ie looks like one spoke splitting into two), but then the next time I looked at them it looked more like two parallel spokes (bit more like the OZ F1 Cups (I think its those), except more squished together). Depend which bit you sort of focus on.

Overall, I think theyre a little bit different and like 'em .

Much more like a BBS CH or LM than some old TSW

We get into Lloret on Tuesday morning. In fact I should be at the cafe, just as you stroll down for breakfast .

Sunday evening, I'll be having a quiet pint in my local as the wind and rain lash against its quaint leaded light windows.

You'll be half way across the Bay of Biscay

I'll be thinking of you

 

they look great on that motor m8

do u have any more pics off the motor ?

F1F3R.

 

Nice

 

thanks for the info Pete.

pity about not going on old car, oh well, lives and learns.

 

Pete,
as your in the know, will knowlsey's old wheels fit and be correct et for my95wrx as I've seen he has them for sale on here, and have said if they fit I'm definitly after them?
cheers

 

ooh, I like..

 

Pete,
go on E-mail me the price in mercury to fit my impending STi7 as the budget went well out the window about £4k ago what the hell

Tony

 

Pete,

What tyres (size) are you running on the 8x18's ,,...the regular 225/40 or are you using a 235 tyre ?

 

I have to say the pictures don't do the wheels justice

Ive seen them on Knowlsey's car and they look great

Just need them in Anthracite now Pete and you have another sale

Phil

 

'kin 'ell

Look HUGE, which is nice

Mikey

 

im sure i've seen that motor in a advert today (scoobysport)
?? same motor ??
F1F3R.

 

Very nice Pete

 

Sorry got to say I really don't like them! Each to their own I guess. Difference does of course make the world go around!

 

Gads!

 

Yikes, they look a bit LARGE

Now for the important questions.

What do they weigh, are they lighter or heavier than the standard wheel/tyre combo?

Not my cup of tea, i can see them being popular though.

 

Hey, hey, hey wait a minute those are my wheels now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Fugly Pete...the car as well.



Oh....I need some Scoobysport stickers mate...both me and Joe's had repaint jobs done ( ), so I need the small bronze one...and IIRC Joe had the silver ones.

Please? Would it help if I said yer car is stunning?

About the same weight as OZ Prodrive 10 spokes & running Toyo's 225/40/18. Plenty of room for calipers at front (I've got the prodrive 330mm discs & calipers) They don't protrude that much from the rubber.

Though in the flesh they look alot bigger than 18's & feel the arches very nicely indeed. I'll be at scoobysport tomorrow morning if anyone wants to come down & have a look!

 

......the tortoise is doing well & has just received a thorough olive oil service under the guidance of my 3yr old.....Infact Sammy's even eating lettuce & bananas, no luck with spinach though.......

 

Not really my style... look a tad overdone... and I'm not really interested in wheels that pertrude past the rubber, just asking to be scratched to hell if you even get close to a gutter :P

Gerrod

 

Knowlesey,

When you first saw these wheels ...... Did you have your dribble tray in operation ,

Pete C,

Off subject a bit , But ......
Any news on the date for DentMaster ...... Must remove my dents !!

Many thanks

Nate.
