I got them off ebay, I needed a blank centre cap so I could get the carbon fibre look STi badge to stick on it, (60mm centre disc and a 60mm dome STi badge sticker)
it came to about £18 in total delivered.


I had to trim a bit off the centre cap back to allow it to fit easier and better in the hole in the alloy, wasn't a problem to do though.

Thanks I'm pleased, It just looks funny having 17s on instead of the 19s I've been used to.
