WTB Stock WRX Rims

Hey all, I recently bought my 06 WRX used from a dealer, and it came with some ugly *** Falken rims!


Anyone got a set of stock WRX rims for sale? I know the 06-07s ran 17s, but will it be a problem to run the stock 16" of the older ones? Either way, let me know, I need to get rid of these Falkens!

Speed sensor I don't think would be thrown off, but clearance issues with calipers could be... I'm no expert though, just something to google eh?

There's a set for sale ('02-'03) on Craigslist, but the guy is asking $375! Don't think it's worth it, but depends on how bad you want to get rid of yours.

for your 06 WRX, only 17 and up will fit due to the 4pot/2pot brakes. otherwise you will have to get 16" wheels from MY 98-01 rs

Thanks guys! Ended up trading Relaxtampax for some Legacy GT rims. Love how it looks now!



Now I need to save up for some suspension.
