gunmetal '05 turbo wheels

[pdiz]

Hey Jaxed, you still looking for the '05 turbo wheels? My car only has 1,000 miles. I know you said you don't need the tires, but if I go bigger, I can't use 'em.

I'm thinking of putting the 17-inch gold STi wheels after I research if they will fit or not. I think the gold will work well with the black paint.

That, or some Jesse James wheels...

Ok, I posted before researching... Looks like the STi wheels are a perfect fit (same width and offset, and I can make up for diameter by going low profile, which the OEM tire is anyway).

Anyway, I would like opinions on how the gold wheels would look on a black turbo. Wheels are here:

Careful!

Check the lug pattern.

I THINK that the STi shares an odd lug pattern shared only with afew non-subarus and SOME years of the SVX.

Fairly warned be thee. Arrrr

D'oh! Thanks for the tip! Did some research and discovered the STi lug pattern was changed to 5X114.3 for '05.

Yes, If I do recall that is correct, 04 STi fits, but 05 is a differnt lug pattern.

Yeah, I'd love to have those wheels... but its the shipping I'm not too interested in.

Find me some gold '04 STi wheels and I'll pay shipping both ways (to get mine to you, and to get yours to me). Don't know if that's a deal for either one of us, but I'm willing... I'll even throw in the tires (less than 1000 miles) with the shipping...
