Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knew if the 17" Prodrive P1's will clear the new STi8 calipers? If not does anyone have a list of options that will fit?

Thanks, Our Sti 8's have not hit the states yet.

NO, but here in the UK prodrive/subaru UK have brought out wheels that look very similar that will clear the caliper.

Also, can you tell me some rims that will clear?

thanks,

Scoobysport have wheels that will fit (not my cup of tea visually)

sales catalog has wheel options in the back NOT all will fit the Sti8

The basic diff is (without getting toooo techy) the Sti8 req's a 7.5 inch wide wheel and the basic Wrx has a 7 inch. plus dont the classic's have a diff offset?

wheel width and offset are not the main issue it is the design of the spokes required to clear the big calipers.

NB those wheels are all 18's can't think of any 17's that fit
NO OZ wheels 17s or 18's apart from those from prodrive specifically designed for the STI will fit, I have tried Super Ls Super Ts and the P1 wheels

so in order to fit oz wheels you have to have 18" wheels!!
