Question Widetrack Blobeye

Hey, I've just recently got my first scooby, a 55 plate wrx blobeye with the updated interior (completely standard).

I couldn't find a dumb questions thread and a search just turned up more people referring to widetrack blobeyes, my question...

What is a widetrack blobeye?

Cheers

A wide track blob is 15mm wider track at the rear and different hubs PCD changes from 5x100 to 5x114 they did this to make them stronger I was told, also wide track blobs have DCCD and rear arch extensions and the bumper is very slightly different to match up with these.

See the rear on mine.


This was on STi's only

all hawkeye stis are 114 pcd and blob sti's after 05 are 114 pcd.

if it has the rear wheel arch extensions fitted its a 114 pcd.
