'06 STi wheels on an '06 WRX

dmcutter · 07-20-2009, 07:45 PM

my search-fu is weak, and I haven't found this info. Will the BBS wheels from an '06 STi bolt up directly to an '06 WRX or would I need spacers? I would assume at one size over the tire fitment in the wheel wells wouldn't be an issue, but that's just a guess...
thanks

New hubs.... lug pattern is a little diff. WRX is 5x100. STi is 114.3 ?? I believe.

It may sound funny, but only BBS wheels from a 2004 STi would fit on any year WRX to date. The issue is the bolt pattern. If you want 10 spoke STi look-a-like wheels, check out the Rota Tarmac 3s - the only thing is they only come in an 18" diameter which is slightly larger and would require a slightly more expensive tire than if you had a 17" wheel, but it's another option to consider. I'm sure there are other 10 spoke wheels out there that look similar too, but that's the only one that I can think of right now.

I had a set of Tenzo's on my old rex..... they aren't that expensive..... If you want light... just get the RP-F1's and call it a day.
