Default newbie saying hello - plus couple of q's

Hi. New Owner here (nothing outrageous) but a really mint late 1999 Impreza Wagon (non-turbo), less than 52k miles.

Realise now (after usng search that clutch is on it's last legs, as bites towards top (1-1.5") of travel - any tips on best place to source a new one ?
Don't know how I missed this on test drive

Also looking at some slightly bigger wheels, and again search gives 17" as best all-rounder for a standard car... Alloywheels.com (Rochford) look to have a good selection at fair price - unless anyone advises otherwise ? Happy to consider any used items

thanks...

Welcome, if the clutch isnt slipping then I wouldnt worry about it just yet, if its a non turbo car it should last a long time surely, unless its be used and ridden a lot in city traffic.
