Default WR1 Standard Wheels

Hi all,
Does anybody know if you can still buy from subaru the standard 17" STI WR1 wheels.
Not the upgraded 18" ones, the ones that are in grey but look like the normal 02, 03, 04 sti's????

Cheers?

wr1 has Prodrive PFF7s

prodrive site lists them as being available in 17"

but subaru.co.uk makes no mention of them

I bought some last year, from merlin motorsport near york.
They didnt have many left, cos they where £400 for four wheels with new re070 tyres!

When they came from japan they had standard sti wheels but not in gold in grey/silver colour.
It was subaru uk that upgraded them to 18 PFF7's

The ones on the silver car above are WRX wheels for sure, the wheels the WR1 were delivered with are STi 7x7.5 wheels but finished in grey.. there have been loads of sets kicking round, I saw a brand new set on Ebay a while ago, sadly no tyres, went for £135!

As an alternative, just paint some gold STi wheels..

AFAIR some dealers had stashes of them around after they were removed prior to customer collection to fit the 18" upgrade but I don't know whether there's many sets left due to the cracking price people could get them - you'll have to try ringing round a few dealers and hope...

I want the WRX wheels same as the car in the photo.

Never seen them that dark. Where do I get them? Look sweet (well I reckon they do...)
