Ok, so I have the Type RA in Sonic Blue with the standard gold Scoob 16" 5 spokes.
Im eventually wanting to get some 17s on it, probably gold again and probably multispoke.
So what are my options?

I know about the OZ Super range, but TBH with a set of tyres its rather out of my price range.

I dont really know what else there is in gold. Ive had a hard time finding anything decent on the 'net.

Or, do I go silver?
Ive found quite a few nice multispoke silver wheels at a better price on several websites, but Ive always liked the Sonic Blue and gold together...

What does everyone reckon?
Anyone know a good set of gold multispokes for non silly prices?

Hmmm,
Thanks for the offers guys, I might be tempted, but really looking for some multispokes, like 10 or 14s

So, same questions to both STI MAN and Dave.K...

Are the alloys marked in ANY way anywhere? (please be honest)
What tyres are on them?
And how much are you both asking?

(And Dave, do you have any pics? Cant find any on the net...)

Cheers
Mark...

Sorry STI MAN, it seems the tyres are the wrong size to fit on a classic, going by a few threads that Ive just been reading.
Needs to be 215/40s and I dont really want the extra expense of new tyres too Im afraid...

Thanks anyway...

Slight kerb damage, previous owner, 7*17 alloy (Gold).

Avon ZZ1 215*40*17 tyres, previous owners choice.

Fits classic impreza as they are on my type r.



How does £350 sound.
