Question

Hi All,

I'm currently out here in the US on a work assignment. Subaru finally got their act together and released the turbo out here, and I picked one up 3 weeks ago.

I read somewhere that the standard UK wheels are 17" vs. the standard US 16". Is this true?

If it is true can someone let me know where I can order them. Since most of you in this forum have probably upgraded your stock rims anyway, would you be prepared to sell and ship? I would pay all shipping costs.

Let me know.

cheers,

JD.

Hey Tony,

The hp is the same between US & UK & Aus. The US just measure it differently. True!

Regards,

David
