hi mate, from what ive been told the wheels will fit, wheels from a turbo up to the new hatch shape should all be 5x100

I would say no, there are very few 18 inch wheels (if any) from a classic that will clear the brembo's on a new age STI.

learn something new every day, ill take it into account when putting bigger discs on mine

Its the clearance behind the spokes on the wheels, the brembo's protrude out a fair bit and even on the standard alloys there isnt much room (maybe 2mm) between the caliper and wheel

Thats a good point as it looks like there is only a *** papers distance from the wheel to Caliper
What about wheel spacers ?

Hi matey for brembo callipers you be prepare pay 750£ for front and rear.
And Prodrive alloys,you mean this,if yes you will fit under Brembo Callipers

michael_scooby

ah pretty expensive :/ they look different again, the ones im thinking of have more spokes with a groove down the middle of every spoke, but they might be 17s

Hi matey everything depends on ET and after this you will see if you are need spacers.
If its possible post the picture of alloys
