Hi,
Does anyone out there have a set of these? I was told by Elite just now that they aren’t available in a suitable fitting, but (1) I’ve seen cars wearing them and (2) I was told previously that they were available (when I was first looking at 17” rims about a year ago). This is in 17x7 size, BTW Any info gratefully received -= mike =- |
Mike.
I have OZ Polaris' on my car 93MY in 17" with 215x40 Fulda Extremos and they look great. The ET is 48 and they do fit OK. I believe from memory that the suppliers were based in Macclesfield or up that way somewhere, if you are struggling let me know and I'll see if I can track them down. Mike. |
Hi Mike,
Thanks for the reply (how fitting that I should be asking you about 17" rims!) Two quick questions: 1) Did they have to do any machining or did the wheels fit as-is? 2) When did you get them? TIA -= mike =- |
Mike.
I don't mind helping now you are on the right track. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif This is an extract from a post I made just prior to buying my ca which already had them fitted. >I have spoken to the current owner who tells me that the wheels were supplied by 'Motorsport wheels' in Stockport. Called them direct, and although the guy I spoke to seemed to know the particular wheel he was unsure of the exact offset measurement for the wheel (<I>it was ET48mm</I>). The wheels allegedly were made in a batch of about 400 sets all supplied direct to themselves especially designed for the impreza Turbo by OZ. They come to them marked on the box as IMPREZA TURBO.< I am not sure about the quantity thing, I suspect that may have been the case originally but they are readily available from most decent wheel suppliers. Hope that helped. I am on record as preferring the Khan RSR over the OZ Polaris, though I daren't check to see if they will fit because I could do without another car bill at the moment. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/frown.gif Mike. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif |
Thanks Mike. Maybe if you get the Khan's I could buy your old OZs off you? Just a thought...

Hi guys...
Give Dave Wood (Manager at the Derby Subaru dealership - Beechdale) a call. He has been fitting the OZ's to several of the Scoobs, including their demo impreza. I believe he knows a cheap supplier. http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif Mention my name... J. |
Mike,
I was quoted £110 + vat for 7 x 17 Polaris.They charged me £112 + vat fitted for 215 X 40 so2's.Went for Speedlines in the end. Hendon Tyres in colindale.Don't have the no. to hand, but directories will have it. Mark. |
Thanks both.
