will these wheels fit onto my STI8? i think the offset is correct but not sure. it doesnt really say.

clicky

sorry to keep posting about wheels but i dont want to go over my handle bars at 70mph

Ain't got a Scooby (so to speak), but you need to know their offset, the PCD and spoke design (for any special caliper clearance).

This should help - Mike Wood's Post on Scoobynet

Oh, and you'll need at least 225 width tyres for a 8" alloy, but that should be a problem on the newage cars.

theres a couple of replies there at the moment so ill have to wait.

these wheels above are 8.0x18"

dont know what the offset is. 48 i think

[ozzy]

8x18 doesn't tell us much. Hopefully someone on SN will know, otherwise you'd be best asking the supplier what the offset is. The spoke design together with the offset will dictate if they will fit over the STI Brembos.

ET53 is what the normal offset is with the Prodrive wheels for the STI's, but as you see on the post the WR1 with Brembos uses a ET51 with the PFF7 8x18 wheel.

You really need to hear from someone with experience otherwise you'll be the guineapig

They should fit OK:

They are listed in the Wheels that fit the STi thread but in a 7.5 x 18 size.

Also check the PCD is correct for your car, the 05 cars have a different PCD to earlier cars due to the new hub design.

BTTT

anymore help please?

[fai17]

if i was you Chris i would get a local wheel supplier to get the wheels you want.That way you'll get better comeback if they don't fit.

if you need a hand i could maybe help.

[oobster]

How about theseones Chris?

[oobster]

Or these!!! These, in my opinion, are even smarter. Says in the text that they will fit over STI calipers too

Scoobyworld is selling the same wheels so I would assume they will fit but you will need to check PCD etc.

I have these wheels in black 17" with yoko parada tyres they r ace for the money and fit perfect .one thing i must say is the the holes where the studs come through r a tight fit had to put a bit tape round my socket to stop scuffs when fitting.

got the wheels from ebay £525 midland wheels scooby world r more expensive.
