The wheels off an STi7 (01MY) most definately WILL fit an STi9 (03MY) but WON'T fit an STi11 (05MY) as it has a different PCD

Hum, this car numbering issue.

Funny thing, the Subaru brochure that came with my blob say's on the front cover, Impreza III

Makes sense I suppose ?

Classic = Series I versions 1-?
bug = Series II
Blob = Series III
