I'm sure that if you want the genuine WRC wheels you will need the WRC hubs and all the other assorted gubbins.

Why? They're still 5 stud fitment, WRC cars of the Impreza era werent centre nut fitment, i dont think they are even now to be honest. The offset might be different to accommodate the massive WRC brakes but the stud pattern is still the same.

Scroll to the bottom, the hubs sizes are different and the wheels won't fit. Full explanation at the bottom of the page to what is different.

You can how ever buy the likes of the revolution millennium alloys in road car form

I had three sets of Speedline ST2s for my classic, two of sets were Magnesium versions, all fit absolutely fine on my car. Just a shame they don't make them anymore.

Yes I know just they would of been road version of the wheel. The Op was asking for WRC wheels and spares and they don't fit road cars.

The offset is definitely different, but its not just a simple case with regards to the stud fitment.

Wrc hubs are totally different to that of the rd car and they are very very expensive! Have looked into this myself and its way out of my league! If you have the cash to build a genuine wrc rep fair play but defo pointless unless your going to rally it .. Or your incredible rich and a bit crazy lol
