Default Will newage alloys fit a classic
Would a set of PFF7 alloys from a 2003 STI fit a 99 classic?

Thanks

I believe they would, but a 215 width tyre on an 8" rim is not going to be ideal. One of the ESC guys was running 225's on a 18x8" Team Dynamics wheel and had rubbing issues under heavy cornering.

They will go on alright but your heart will be broken with rubbing.

If it was me the widest I'd go would be 7.5x18" on a classic.

Thanks for the reply's.

I am sure I had seen classic's on genuine PFF7's. Could be wrong though?
