Need some temp wheels/tires...

Anyone selling a set of WRX Rims/Tires cheap? I need some temp rims to get me around while I get my fenders rolled...got some new shoes...but they won't fit without a roll...

PM me if you have a set you can let go cheap.

I would just need to "borrow" a set for a day or two till I get my windows re-tinted, rear fenders rolled, and my safety done...so I can get the title transferred...

Thanks in advance,

Brent

I would let you borrow my spare 18s. But they might not clear if you already got to roll your fenders. The have on 225 45 and they are 18 x 7.5

Normally Jess, I would agree with you...my issue is that the car is dropped pretty low...like flush with the fender, maybe slightly lower...I'd hate to cut up a nice set of tires...just need some 16" or 17" stockers...

They would have to be 06 plus stocks due to the calipers being larger than the previous years

Thanks for the info...^^^

Hey Daniel,

I thought the red calipers looked bigger than the older WRX's...but then again, I'm used to looking at those Brembo goldies on the STI's...

Good to know.

Thanks,

2005 FXT wheels?

Anyone know if the 2005 (Forester) FXT wheels will fit on an 06 WRX with the red calipers?

I am surprised Brandon hasn't chimed in yet. We all know he hiding like 5 sets of rims.

yeah...I can't even fit my 18x8.5 +32offsets in there...of course, it doesn't help that they have 245/45/18 tires on them...

I need to pick up a set of 235/40/18...

Big Size Difference...
