I would like to acquire a set of the 17" MY01 WRX wheels since Subaru decided to screw the US and give us 16" wheels. These will be for street use, so I'd like them to be in excellent shape.

I'll take wheels alone, or wheels with tires, if the price is right of course. Needless to say I'll take care of the customs fees/duties, whatever they may be.

Thanks,
Pat Olsen

Congrats! I saw your post and figured I'd try the same thing. If you don't mind, could you email me (thepno95@earthlink.net) to let me know where you got them and how much they're costing you? Actually, what I'd really like to know is how much shipping is going to run me.

Thanks!

Had a look at your profile, why are you worrying about shipping costs. Can't you borrow the company's boat and make a slight detour on your next exercise sorry couldn't resist.

I've sent you mail

Still searching! My current 16" tires are starting to get pretty low on tread, someone needs to hook me up before I have to buy new 16" tires.

I appreciate any help you can give me, Mike. I replied to the post in the Private section that Steve referred to, but haven't seen any other leads recently.

Well, unfortunately for me, George W Bush and I weren't able to figure out the shipping details quickly enough, so he sold them to his dealership. Oh well. I'm back in the market - help?
