Question

Considering upgrading my 16"'s to 17's. I quite like the look of the Raduis R3's, does anyone know what offset they have for the Impreza fitment?

I'm also considering the MIM's which have ET45, but the SS price is rather high. Did I read on hear somewhere that someone got a set of MIM's with tyres and including VAT and balancing from Elite in Essex for £800 (ish)?

Cheers,

Dave

Warning, Elite are rated as the best, but their tyre prices ain't, check out Jet Tyres On canvey Island. (01268) 511161.

Hi

I have the Radius R3 on my MY98, in 7 * 17" size. They have ET50 offset. So they fit without a problem (with 215/50/17 SO-2s).

I'm from Holland, but I would expect the UK to have the same sizes available.

Re: the R3's - I had a set for just over a year and found them to fair badly during winter, noticably more than oem wheels. Also, hitting some subsidence at high speed buckled 2 of them !
