Hi, I know you deal a lot with subarus and whatnot, I was wondering if you had a source for cheap stock sti rims? 05+? I ask because I think they would look pretty good on the ms3. I know the hub bore is different, but a machine shop could fix that, correct? Also, do you have any idea how much these weigh? I've read theyre about 16 or so lbs each. And they are 17x8 et48, correct?
Thanks,
Charles

If you're talking about the BBS wheels, they should be about 19lbs a piece (forged). They also have Weds TC105N (cast alloy) at 17 inches too weighing in at 15lbs, both running a 17x8. Be careful because the 2004 STi took a bolt pattern of 5x 100, and the new ones 2005-2007 take a bolt pattern of 5 x 114.3. There were other people interested in trying this, but stated there would be fitment issues and there would have to be a little bit of customization to get it to work. As for where to get them, ebay has a little bit of selection at decent prices.
That's just a little bit of personal input I've heard.
