Gumball Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 Hi Im looking for a set of alloys and tryes if available for my STI to use on trackdays Using my current everyday ones is lunacy and is costing a lot of money already. Please, if anyone that has an old set or knowledge of who might please let me know asap. THEY MUST CLEAR THE BREMBO CALIPERS ON AN STI TYPE UK 2003
fai17 Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 shabby track wheels are hard to come by for our quality cars m8. 320 BHP.. .... where did that come from?????????
andrew_lally Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 What size you looking for dude.....i struggled to get a set cheap until i discovered that vw 5 studs fit....got a set off a golf vr6.....the offset is a little bigger than subaru which is just what you need to get over your brembo's they slid over my AP 6 pots a treat!!!! got a set o 16" gold sti alloys but dont know if they would go over....but harder to get 16" tyres I own a breakers yard, and have a few good contacts....getting 17 part worn tyres for much cheapness......would be able to sort you out with a matching set o tyres for about £15 a corner...fitted and balanced.....im based in glenrothes!!! will keep my eyes open for a set o alloys for you mate cheers andy ps: nice result on the rollers on saturday....woohoo....higgy was well pissed off!!!!
johns Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 I believe that Numptie has a set that might be for sale. They are a set of OEM gold 17 inch alloys that came off an STi with Brembo calipers. I don't think they have any scratches or kerb marks, but may need a bit of cleaning to get some brake dust off John
andrew_lally Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 who's numptie????? wouldnt mind another set o 17s myself if they no good fro gumball!!!...got a nice set o slicks sitting on one set but a spare set for wets would be awesome!!! any idea when the next SIDC track day is????????
johns Posted June 27, 2005 Posted June 27, 2005 Numptie posts on here regularly. He's an STi owner who also runs a Westfield in the Scottish Hillclimb championship. He does most of our track events. I'll point him to this thread. John
Gumball Posted June 27, 2005 Author Posted June 27, 2005 baldyadonis, thanks for your help. fai-i have no idea john- thanks for your help. My car wont be on again until the dreadnaught tracknight so the rush is on but not as bad as i thought.

So basicly the car wont be able to run fast between fFriday and wednesday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! aaaaaahhhhhh thats a long time in the world of gumball
scuba dou Posted July 1, 2005 Posted July 1, 2005 I have a set of "Sti Pink" 17" Sti Alloys with RE070's on them that are soon to be for sale. Done a couple of track days and few sprints and few shows.... Nobody will steel these from the paddock....if you follow the thought process See here for pictures; http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=353856
