I know this was done a while back but I can't find the thread....

Can anybody say for definite whether the following fit the STi7..

OZ SUper Turismo 18"
Oz Super Leggra 18"

Also on the Subaru web site they mention Oz 18" Crystal Titanium 10 spoke - I'm not sure which Oz wheel this actually is - can't see it on Oz web site - hmm going back to Subaru web site - it's not clear whether this fits anyway!!!

And finally is the Prodrive FF7 only available through Subaru dealers or is it worth phoning round for a better price.

So many questions - so little time and even less money!!!

Thanx all

Ian

You can get dozens of wheels for your car. Just need the right size, PCD and offset.

Claudius,

I think it's more than that - If I rememebr rightly the spoke design itself is important. Just found out that 18" Superleggras won't fit, although the 19" ones will - but not sure if I want a rubber band for a tyre!!!

Yes, it also depends on the spoke design. If that is such that it would touch the brake caliper, then you need a wheel with a different offset to give more clearance AND make sure that the tyre wont touch in the wheelarch once the clearance has been sorted.

Why are you looking for 18 inch wheels? Upgrading the brakes?

(I wouldnt want 19s and only would want 18s if I needed them to clear the brake system, which I dont)
