06 wrx wheel questions

i was wondering if anyone knows what the bolt pattern is for the 06 wrx wheels and how much they cost (im sure expensive from Subaru but I'd probably wait until someone sells theirs). I have an 05 and kind of like the 06 wheels and was considering them, i have to photoshop them onto my car to see if they would work. also what are your opinion for 06 wheels on 05. thanks for any info.

Well just about anything is better than the 02-05 WRX wheels. I believe the 06 WRX wheels are 17x7 w/ 5x100 bolt pattern. Unless you are going to buy someone's "takeoff" wheels for cheap, I would NOT pay for those new. You can get much better wheels aftermarket.

Yeah the stock 06 wrx wheels are about 400/each and the BBS's are about 750/each.

Wait... those prices are for each SET of wheels, or for each wheel?

Thanks.

read it a little more carefully Each. I'd rather go buy a cheaper set of forged wheels for that price.

Yeah, I did note the word "each." LOL, I just can't believe that the stock wheels for the '06 are $400 EACH! Same here -- I'd rather buy a set of better-looking, lighter aftermarket wheels for that price.

Thanks.

I gotta admit, the '06 wheels are good-looking. Does anyone know how much the stock '06 wheels weigh? I'd like to compare the weight to some of the aftermarket wheels.

Thanks.

I got them from some guy on NASIOC. He lives in Mass and I live in CT so we just met, I checked them out, looked good, so got them. They were used but I'll post some pix later today since I'm going to clean them. I still would like to get some 06 wheels....just for fun.
