from discussion with Mike Wood at Prodrive UK about the GC_10e (similar to P-WRC1/P1 wheel, but better), it is unlikely that they will be made available through Prodrive over here due to cost. However, he did say that the forged alloys could be sourced via a Subaru main dealer. i will confirm this when i get a moment, but any interested parties would be looking at approximately £330 - £350 per rim.

ps.. GC_10e

If I had the money, I'd be having some... I dont, so I'll stick to my P1's!!

Prices on the GC_05F are:

17x7.5J: Y63,000 (Japanese Yen) / £325.09
18x7.5J: Y69,300 (Japanese Yen) / £357.60

Beechdale Subaru in Derby are currently checking to see if they can source them via Subaru UK.

1678 including VAT for the rims and then you have to put boots on them bloody expensive!!!

oh yes, not cheap! and.. Beechdale Subaru have just got back to me - Subaru UK weren't very forthcoming about sourcing the wheels. so the options are:

1. go direct to Subaru Japan (anyone speak Japanese? )
2. go via an American supplier (cheapest I've found) or Prodrive USA

of course you then need to look at import duty - which from the Customs and Excise site appears to be 3%. although i have heard that this is on a sliding scale and increases for items valued at over £1500

i do have a Japanese contact here in Nottingham - i will speak to him next.

spoke to Adam at Z1 Auto in the US. they will now be stocking this wheel (initially thought not) at a similar price to the GC_10e. Current price for the 10e is $575 (£316.25) / wheel. should be taking stock in 8 - 12 weeks!
