Default Wheel fitment

Do classics and new age scoobies have the same fitment for wheels ? I may myself some new alloys for my MY99 at some point and am curious about fitting either new age or other type of subaru supplied wheels to my mota. Anybody done this ? Some wheels suggestions and pics wouldnt go a miss either. Mines a Mica blue wagon.

Nice pics messiah.

Seems like it might be the best way to go. Wheels like the ones on your mota are quite often taken off brand new cars. Might try and pick some up in couple of months.

Thumbs down

The wheels on ebay are the ones taken off the car before the WR1 wheels go on they are just bog standard graphite 17" STI wheels before anyone gets excited and starts bidding. Well thats the only ones I could find anyway.

...but they come with the best road legal track tyres money can buy

and much much better than the 18" prodrive wheels I have on my Sti with F1 rubber.
