Yep mate!

Defo 7.5 x 18" alloys,as i must have said to the guy on the phone about twenty times"you have quoted me for 18"s aint ya to fit my sti with brembos"and he kept saying yes so all being well,bargain of the decade imo
So from this im assuming 17" wheel and tyre deal will be about £550

They are replica prodrives mate and look the nuts in the flesh,Roll on wednesday/full rally grafix and new 18"s to boot

Yep they are real nice, I have a set in steel grey which is same colour as the WR1 wheels. centre caps they come with are pretty nasty though, look better without them! Make sure you get new nuts supplied, they need a different one to the standard subaru fitting.

def sounds like you have mis qouted.. even if you said each wheel was 100.00
thats 400.00 plus tyres..i would have thought 4 tyres and delevery is more than 299.00..which equals the 699.00....17s for sure

FFloyd-I had them on one of my old scoobs and found them very good tyres indeed in my opinion,was gonna pay for toyos instead but when they said there budgets were nankang i thought ok sounds good to me

BEARIO-The guys at turriff tyres have defo quoted me for 18's as i checked it about six or seven times with them on the blower,but if for some bizzarre reason 17's do turn up then they will be going back(but the guy defo said £699 for 18's with tyres including delivery)but if wrong i will be in touch beario as you said you will be getting some 18's shortly!
This is the email message i received below

For Rota Tarmac 2 18" Gold with Nankang tyres, you will looking at £699 Delivered

That's reassuring Mark 'cos I've got a set in the garage, which I just haven't had the guts to use yet. I got them free a while ago for track days and stuff.

Wheels look nice mate, but have to agree that the tyres, IMO are awful. Couldn't get the full driving experience from the car till i got rid of them.
