Default Will Squared SC1 Alloys Fit A Sti

As above , I have a opportunity to buy some squared sc1 alloys and Tyres that are currently sitting on a 05 WRX , I'm trying to found out if they fit a 04 sti , the offset is 35 and rim and tyre spec are 8.5 x 18 , 225/40/18 ,
All I can find out are they seem to be VAG wheels and have not seen one on a scooby apart from sellers car .
Any info please .

Some VW wheels were 5x100 pattern as are the 05 WRX and 04 STI you've mentioned. The only issue might be clearance of the brembos. Thats really a suck it an see IMO. As much as 35 offset is a lot, the spoke design may not allow the clearance required.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking , does anybody know if the bore is the same , the guy is going to see if they fit over brembo's but my concern was that no other Impreza seem to have them on ?

The clearance to the standard four pots looks tight in that pic although its hard to tell from the angle. If its tight to them i'd suggest there's not a cat in hells chance that they will clear brembos. See what the boy says. Are they far from you?

There's not a hell of alot of options for wheels that clear brembos, I'd be very surprised if they did mate
