Default P1-WRC 18" ET53 x 4

I Have a set of 4 P1-WRC 18" Alloys,

I had them refurbished in Anthracite less than 500 miles ago. Only selling as I have now had a set colour matched to the original wheel colour with new centre caps.

No Tyres

One wheel has a very minor mark that could be keyed in no probs, not kerbing and not deep. THIS IS NOW BEING REPAINTED SO REPAIRED.

Pictures
















£800

Thank you for your helpful input. You clearly don't realise the demand for these wheels with a huge lack in supply.

A set recently sold on eBay brand new for £2000, sets that need refurbishing often sell for £5-600 and I've seen refurbished sets sell between £1-1200.

So with all that taken into account £800 seems a fair price imo. If not I'll keep them as a spare set.

You might not know this but the P1's suspension was actually designed for these wheels against the 17's. The only reason they were dropped is the regulations in some countries that require wheel size to accommodate snow chains. Hence the 17's with 18' option.

Just because you wouldn't pay it doesn't mean someone else wouldn't.

I always wanted a set of these in gold et46 ? to clear brembo's.
now that really is a rare set of wheels.
Even if I found a set I would have to resist buying due to them no longer being made.
If you break one your in the **** trawling ebay for a replacement and if you do find one chances are it will have a wobble once it's fitted up.
Btw op they are lovely wheels.

Great wheels, but unfortunately overpriced. I think 400-500 is fair. If you drop the price let me know please mate.

They fetch that needing a refurb! These are mint and just need tyres.

Price will not be lowered.

More for the people that pay that much for them, I'm just saying what I would pay. I'm not interested in scene tax for rarity.

No worries mate, GLWS

The reason these wheels (offset ET53) Don't clear Brembos, is because they wasn't designed to. These wheels were designed to fit the P1 Impreza which has a different offset to Imprezas fitted with Brembos. However, these wheels will accommodate AP Racing 4 pots aswell as Prodrive Alcon 4 pot brakes. As these wheels were so popular, Subaru fitted them to other Prodrive special edition Imprezas but had moved on to fitting Brembo brakes to the next generation Impreza, and had to change the offset of the wheels to ET46 to clear the Brembo brakes. Prices for the P1 18" wheels with the ET53 offset are all over the place, and as always with short supply, the prices increase. I have just bought a set with tyres for a bargain price.
