I have 4 18" compomotive alloy wheels and tyres which will happily fit all Impreza's.
8J x 18 x 50 on Continental SportContacts which are brand new and the alloys have done less than 100 miles.
Would like to give them a good home for £800 which I think is a fair price considering the tyres are £200 each due to their compound/spec rating. This means I'm letting the alloys go for free!
Follow the link to view the picture. (the link will take you to an MG XPower Forum (apologies) where you may view them as they have a PCD the same as the MG ZT.

IF you're interested, drop me a line. Would like to move them soon. My motor bike is becomming a shelf for the wife's gardening things because the wheels are taking a coner of my garage up!

very nice wheels dont get me wrong, BUT it may be the camera but the gold looks slightly wrong should they not have blue centre caps and blue stickers on them? have the been reconditioned?
also would you sell wothout the tyres as they will not fit a classic and i think they would be a push on a bugeye>?

No, they are not reconditioned by any stretch of the imagination. You may be correct about the blue caps, but when I picked them up (for the project I was working on)they came with silver caps. Didn't really complain because they're only finishers and it just makes them look different from the rest of the crowd.
As for selling them without the tyres on, I may if I'm offered a sensible price for them. I know what I said in my original post, but if they become seperates, then I would have to have a bit of a re-think. I'm open to suggestions.

If the tyres would be a problem to any body interested in the alloys, I am prepared to strip the tyres off the alloys and let them go as just rims. To do this the prices would break down as follows.
Complete assemblies: £850
Tyres only: £400
Alloys only: £400
or something around there.

I know, sorry about the link, but unless anyone can suggest a simple way to upload the picture without having to register with a company that holds images etc, I'll have to keep the thread link. The X Power forum where it's sited allows you to up load straight into your message which makes things really easy.
Still, that aside, they're nice wheels they're up for grabs.

Are you sure these will fit an Impreza??
I thought the MG uses an offset of ET35 and a PCD 5*100.
This right for VAG cars, but the offset is not high enough for a Subaru and will cause them to stick out too much!
Subaru's require an offset of ET45-53. These are for 7" wide wheels, so this will need to be taken into consideration for 8" wide wheels.

MG ZT's have the PCD of 5*100 with an offset of 50, not 35's. If you think that these wheels I have will not fit an Impreza, I'll close the link and thread down.
