Ladies & Gents,

have been offered a deal on the above with 215/35/18 Toyos.
Will there be any problems rubbing?(OOH er missus:-)
Perhaps I'll have to remove the plastic/rubber "inner arch protectors" on the rear wheel arches?
By my calculations the rolling circumference will be ok, slightly less than 16inch wheels with 205/50/16 tyres.
I know the wheels are 7.5 x 18 as opposed to 7 inch width of most Scooby wheels,will this be a problem?
Any advice welcome.
Cheers,John

Im think they will as those 18x7.5 alloys were available on the
P1 as an extra.

Cheers,

Tks Kosy, good point.
I'm just wondering if the 2 door shell has the same width rear arches as
a 4 door? John

It is my understanding (albeit potentially wrong) that the OZ wheels for the MY'01 have a different off-set to the OZ wheels for the P1 / < MY'01

Should cause to many issues.. but you never know...
As i said, I could be talking out of my hat on this one..

Come to think of it, i have also been told that standard MY01 alloys
fit on old shape Imprezas. There are a few cars in the members gallery with em on. If thats the case then the offset shouldn't be a problem on the 18's.
