Thought you guys might be interested..

While getting some EBC's fitted to my Lotus Exige today, Mark at Tyres Northampton talked me into getting these new 17" wheels fitted to my Impreza.

Take a look at these:

Very nice wheels David - are they the Stilauto alloys? I need to get some new tyres soon - I can see a trip to Tyres Northampton coming up....

Yes Chris, they are.

The look better in the flesh (or metal).

I'm on the verge of needing new tyres anyway so could be interested in those. Do you have any further spec, primarily offset and the weight of the wheels?

Thanks

Got mine last week, much much better in the flesh so to speak than the images.

Seems to be a quality finish, time will tell.

Cheers Mark

Sorry, keeping them so I can put them back on when I sell it.

I think they're the same offset, don't know about weight, sorry.. I decided based on looks (like the tart I am), rather than performance considerations.

Give Tyres Northampton a call, they'll tell you 01604 588599 if memory serves.

I've got the same wheels from the same place, very pleased and the photo doesn't do them justice, they're cool . I think they do them in Gold too.
