fantastic looking, in the flesh are they identical to the wr1 wheel? do you know if they would fit on the waggon, the track is a bit narrower than on the saloon!

yes their the same style as the WR1 alloy, couldnt tell you if the 18" would fit the wagon but im pretty sure the 17" versions would fit !

Glade you got them now after the wait!, They look fantastic .

What is in inners like for colour?, is it the same finish as the face?

On the Gold the inners are a pretty rough finish like the standard wheel on my 05 STI, i.e. not a shinney gold finish.
