I'm after 17inch 7 spoke gold ones - I think they are speedline - a very flat looking spoke (I rang speedline - they said they had stopped doing them and try silverline - silverline said - nah.. thats rubbish they still do them??)

I think they used to be called GT1 or superturismo (no not the OZ ones) - I'm not sure whether Prodrive had a monopoly on these sorts of ones as I've seen some very nice Prodrive ones that I'm sure are the same - but I dont think they fit over the AP's

Steve

I just wanted to see a few piccies before I bought them - and they have to fit over AP 4P pots with 330mm discs

Steve,

I have the prodrive 7 spoke alloys in gold, and confirm that they clear the AP 4 pot calipers with 330mm discs without any problem. I've got about 5-8mm between the caliper and the spokes of the wheel.

I'm sure there are some more photos of my car on the web, but I can only find this one, where you can only see the one wheel on the left hand side of the photo:

The wheels you are talking about are Prodrive 7. These are manufactured exclusively for Prodrive by Speedline and therefore are not distributed through the Speedline network in the UK.
They are available from every Subaru dealer though!

As another small point, Speedline in the UK is distributed by a company which is part of the Silverline Group, as are Raceline. Sounds like someone has been getting their lines crossed.

Regards

Mike

Thumbs up

Doesn't seem that pricey at all!

Suppose that counts me out then as I drive a 'jap crap' version......
