...nothing covert in that topic heading!

Looking to get some double tidy gold 17" ers off a Bugeye owner - what is the offset and will they fit my 99 STi V?

Are the tyres 7.5" wide on the new model??

Thanks for any help to clinch this deal, and I promise my next topic heading will be MUCH more interesting

Nice fit, wrong colour The gold leaf is many microns thinner than silver paint, and this can make the difference between fouling and motoring

Cool! I like the WRX alloys too - forked/double spokes do it for me, so now I know it'll work on my MY00... Something to consider for the future...

A quick bump too..

If you've still got them in 8 months, I might take them. But I doubt you will (enough bills due early next year for the car with big service + tax + MOT, and I'm out of a job at the moment - so not even considering buying anything for it at the mo).
