ZANY

Should be straight on I reckon

will look well on a widetrack

Wull

Different cb size. You'll need spigot rings to fit the Evo 8 wheels.

56.1 > 67.1

nufctoon

bought the wheels just need a Widetrack to go with them!

nufctoon

ah really? Where can i get these and will i need longer studs or anything else?

Wull

That should be 67.1>56.1

There's online shops that can supply spigot rings of most if not all siz s.

The CB of the Evo 8 is 67.1 and the Impreza is 56.1


The current wheelnuts you have will be fine and should do the trick, only difference between the Evo and Impreza nuts is the pitch but as you are fitting the Evo wheels to the Scooby you can just use the existing nuts.

nufctoon

nufctoon

hi mate would aluminium ones be better and are these safe and ok to use would you say?

BrownPantsRacing

iTrader: (6)

Makes no difference at all. I've used plastic spigot rings for the last 10 years with no issues at all.

nufctoon

Have you used these exact ones?
any lug nuts you could recommend me too?

BrownPantsRacing

iTrader: (6)

No, haven't got those exact ones. Purchased mine from the seller in the link below. But are essentially the same thing.

Do you need longer nuts?

nufctoon

not too sure if i would? Just wanted to make sure when i put them on everything is right

BrownPantsRacing

iTrader: (6)

As they age, your nuts will generally get longer anyhow. So don't worry too much.


Put the wheel on using the nuts you have, do them up correctly. If the wheel wobbles, take it off again and buy longer nuts.


I'd be amazed if you need longer nuts.

ZANY

You got saggy nuts bro

BrownPantsRacing

iTrader: (6)

Not speaking from experience I should add.

nufctoon

LOL! Thanks for the advice on my ageing long nuts much appreciated

BrownPantsRacing

iTrader: (6)

Only get concerned if your ball joints are longer than your dipstick!

nufctoon

Right what sized tyres would be best?

ZANY

235 40 18

BrownPantsRacing

iTrader: (6)

225/40/18 as you may get rubbing with a 235 tyre and need to roll your arches.

nufctoon

225 part how wide they are? And a 45 profile be too thick?

ZANY

Update:
Just gone out to check on mine and they are 225 40 18 thought they were 235
my apologies and they are 8.75j wide so would be bang on for 8j drive is perfect no rubbing no arch mods sat on pink sti adj legs might be good weather 2moz I'll put pick up now it's sat proper

nufctoon

Yeh put up a pic if you could please i ideally wanted more tyre wall just for that little more safety and comfort. Not going to slam it or lower it loads anyhow

ZANY

Will do soon as might just wash it today
