Pic of my MY94 UK PPP. But what are the wheels please?



I know that they are 16" Speedlines but what model. They have Prodrive centre caps.

Also how much would they be worth with 3 good F1's and a worn "ish" Falken type tyre. They're not in fantastic cosmetic condition (few scrapes from curbs etc.) but have always scrubbed up well.

Question

Probably wrong but I think they are the Speedline Superturismo, slightly redesigned later on to fit the 4 pots.

Exclamation

Speedline Superturmiso or Chronos (as they are currently called), basically the same wheel!

They are still available from Speedline and you'll find them in Demon Tweeks, etc.

The 17" wheel comes in two offsets:

ET52/53 (I forget which) was available in silver and gold. These will not clear the standard Subaru 4-pot brakes, due to the design of the wheel

ET48 was offered in anthracite, and the extra distance (4/5mm) away from the hub helped these clear the 4 pot calipers.

I'm unsure whether the 16" wheel of the same design will clear the 4 pot caliper or not!

Thanks Andy. You are obviously a man who knows his wheels!

Does any one have an idea how much should i be asking for them please, with or without the tyres.

Thanks,

Roy.

P.S. They are available.

They are a wheel that we called Supertourismo for Subaru fitment but also known as Chrono for other aftermarket fitments. They were exclusively sold by us in Subaru fitment and we supplied them in both 16 & 17" ET55 for fitment to Impreza and Legacy in Silver and Gold as well as 17" ET48 for Forester fitment but in Anthracite so there was not going to be any confusion as to which wheel you had.

Unfortunately they will not fit over Subaru 4pot calipers in ET55 but do clear in ET48 but this wasn't our preferred offset for Impreza so we introduced the ST2 in 99 which do clear the 4pots.

Hope this helps as you will inevitably asked if they would fit a 99MY car at some stage.
