Cheap as, but I think the offset on the STi is different coz of the Brembo's. Try before you buy.

Yep, very cheap.....I asked our local dealer for pricing on RSK-B4 alloys - he wanted NZ$1000 EACH (no tyres) :shock:

You will have to try before you buy. I think I heard they were a wider rim. 7.5-8 inches.

Yep, Iam positive the rims are 7.5 inchs and will probably require the guards to be rolled a bit. THe offset is apparently a fair bit different too. But if you can do it I think you will have picked up a great bargain and will look sensational.

Once you are 25 you can apply to Unique Cars and Shannons to name two plus some of the other major companies will look upon you more favourably than they would have the day before you turned 25, when you turn 25 you instantly become a better driver :lol: Didn't you know? :roll: Bring on early March i say when i can give Just Cars the flick.

CGU are good to deal with, i pay about 1400 on rating 2, i'm over 25 but i've got a 22 year old named driver on the policy. I made a claim last year and all i did was fill in the paper work and pick up the car when it was ready. I didn't hear a word from CGU.

CGU allow 3 mods but no lowering.

did anyone answer NVMYRS s' original question, that being do 02 WRX 17" rims fit an RS, I too want to know if they fit, but seeing as every bloody other RS driver has 'em I am going down a diff path :) :)

Fronts fit but rears do not. They require spacers and the guards have to be rolled.
MVardy on these forums has a set fitted to his RS though.
