04 STI owners I need your help!

I need to borrow 3 peoples Spare tires ofr 04 STI.

My car will be going into the shop.

For those who know why please don't say anything!

I will need to borrow you're spare tires since it will be going into a shop and I want to make sure they don't take my car for a joy ride. Also since I have Brembo brakes WRX spare tires will not work. I own 1 STI spare and will need 3 more.

Whomever can help me out I'm sure the favor will be returned to you sometime during the life of your SUBARU by my help and knowledge...etc.

You think putting spares on it is going to stop them from taking it for a joyride? If anything they'll go drifting with the skinny tires...I've heard stories of it.

If anything just measure your mileage

BTW...without reading the rest I was gonna offer my Rotas for you to borrow because I thought you bent your rims or something.

Howler...

if it's an STI spare then yes it will fit if it's a Legacy spare it will NOT fit since it will not clear my brembo brakes.

WRX spare tires will not fit!

5x100 STI spares are needed

At times like this, you need a video camera with a battery life of 7 days, and enough tape for 7 days for a constant recording..

It would be such a victory to catch them in the act (if they do anything) and wow, it would feel so great.

just help me find someone or 2 people willing to lend it to me for a little while.


when my car goes into the shop my car will not have my wheels on it that's why i need 2 more spares.
no front bumper / front mount / grill / headlights
so that i can make sure my **** doesn't get damaged.
my car will also be reflashed in valet mode and it won't be able to rev past 4K RPM so that no one can "abuse" my car like the last time!

actually I did catch a shop abusing my car the last time it went it but i couldn't do anything about it since friends of mine would get penalized before the appropriate party did due to the fact that the people that abused the car was the GM and the technician that worked on it.
