Default Changing wheels??

I am looking at buying a MY06 Sti, but don't like the gold wheels.

I have seen Bright Flitter Prodrive wheels on some cars - line the WR1, I think.

Anyone know how much a set of these in 18" with tyres would cost, or whether there are any alternatives that look as good.

Thanks all.

It is the Pitch circle diameter of the bolt holes, larger on >05 STi due to bigger wheelbearing used. Really what is being said is that other wheels not for these specific models will not fit e.g. 04 STi or any WRX.

Try Revolution 01914770785 or Revolution (best phoning as they dont always have them on their website).I got a set of Prodrive PFF7s for my 05 STI (same pcd as your car) for £1349 complete with Toyos.They also do replicas of the PFF7 for a lot less.Service is excellent as well.

yeah, for about 3 weeks they were £999 before! not the cheapest place to shop it would seem.

9005rpm - have you thought about getting them painted? if you like the style of the wheel i don't think i'd be a bank buster to get them done in whatever colour you want

that's a damn good price bmac800
