You want the GC-010G wheel mate. I really want these but at about £400 each they are a little over the top!!!

Yeah they are like rocking horse ****.

Subaru WRX Performance Upgrade Parts - Mach V Motorsports in America stocks them.

Also PRODRIVE JAPAN has them and a few others not normally seen over here!!!

Whilst they look good in the picture above, a set were fitted to an STi on the Subaru stand at the Autosports Show yesterday, and in my opinion they looked awful.

GC05's on the otherhand.

Thanks Robocop any pictures? I've seen the GC-05 at the dealer but not keen on them.

The other option is a set of 18" Spec-C RA wheels that Ian Litchfield sells.

Yes I agree with you there, the 18" Spec-C RA wheels are very exclusive.

The only problem I would have in fitting them to my Spec C, would it may appear that I was trying to make mine look like a Type RA. That reminds my of all the "turbo" badges that found their way onto the rear of Mk3 Escort 1.3 Populars.

True and mine is a MY07 STi in white

But they are a lovely wheel.

Stunning wheels, I noticed they need special wheel nuts, did they come with the wheels?

Is it just me or do the wheels in the picture look different to the wheels on the car , the wheels in the picture look as though they have a larger lip?

Are these the OZ Prodrive WRC-1 wheels? If so I have a set and they are great except the spokes catch every bit of dirt flying past. Rota Tarmac-II wheels look very similar and are much cheaper - try home who usually have some in stock.
