Anyone able to give some input on where to get realistic help on 17s for STi's - a lot of the companies I've spoken to have said they don't have any correct fitments but would try and make them fit!
Apart from SS, Speedline and Radius (which don't appeal), wheres a good starting point?

Cheers

Craig,

Have you seen the whole Speedline range,Prodrive only do a couple of types.OZ also do two fitments.If you contact Silverline,and ask for Anthony Barnsly(owner).Silverline are the importer,and supplier of Speedline to Prodrive.They also import other wheels.He will give a good discount to SIDC members.He also sells Toyo tyres cheap.I had Radius R3's,and changed to Speedlines(not the P/D types).

Mark.

A recent ad in Fast Car from Revolution in Gateshead 0191 477 0785, listed wheels from the following companies, as being subaru friendly: Raceline (RL5 & 7), Radius (R2, 3 & 5), Speedline (Comp 2), Momo (Sport) Tecnomagnesio (Sport & Monaco) and TSW (Evo R)

Thanks for the replies.
Mark which Speedlines did you go for? I've looked on their web page just now, they do similar to the ones Prodrive use, but 6 spoke. The Rally 7's look good, but I don't think they go over the calipers. Is it the GT's. I quite fancy those in grey.
Being quite sad, don't you think it's hard to get wheels which suit the car as well front/rear or vice versa?
Cheers
