Default Just got A Scoob again - But What Brakes? & Tyres?

Hi,

Just got my self another Impreza,

2004 STI JDM Blob Eye,

What Tyre Size are they?... I though they had 235/45/17 tyres from Japan?

I was thinking of Bridgestone RE070 225/45/17?

And other than Brembo Brake Pads, what other make are as good but cheaper?

Can't help you with the tyres, but our Kevlar Fast Road pads are better and cheaper than the Brembo ones.

Take a look here - just £59.99 delivered!

Being an MY04 JDM the tyres will have been 225/45/17 RE070's, it was the MY05's that had the 235's fitted.
As for pads, anything is an improvement over the standard wooden bricks you get, Bob does a good price there or you can look at PF Z's or the EBC blues, though quite a bit more expensive.
