Seeing as they are the same offset and stud pattern as my current wheels i thought i would borrow one off a mate and see how it looked on the car. My current wheels are 17x7s off a Liberty B4 and these are 16x6.5s. I think they look pretty good, maybe with a higher profile tyre and the car a bit lower.

Look at bit like the boxster rims I have

The ones with the split spoke and bit more of a curve? Those are nice. I thought they looked pretty similar. One of the reason i borrowed them

I honestly prefer what's on it now. Why go smaller? Or less wide...

Go the Boxster look a likes
Heaps easier to clean as well

Will the impreza wheels bolt straight on with no worries?
I want them on my kombi 😏
Bizarre ·
Nah - they would be 100PCD
Kombi is 112
Porsche 130

Ahh, Thanks anyway.

We were thinking of getting a set track wheels if we cant fit Rspecs on my current wheels. Just threw them on to have a look. Not really a serious thing. Yes they are subaru bolt pattern Joel which is 5x100. We went that pattern because my current wheels fit right with the 944 rear end that is in mine and the track increase that it causes.

Just take your time and ask questions
The offset needed for "supers" can be hard to get right
You will notice the Empi's probally sit a bit wide on your super at the front
The V Force Spider is a good choice
6" with 36ET offset
You will need thinner springs on the front though
Barry knows his supers 🙂
they are tapered springs (what I am gettting.)

Thanks so much Pete for changing my name to Sherbie!!
I am looking at sticking with the empi's I have been happy with them. When I sold her & then got her back the mags have not had the best of care. I saw this set & liked them. Now all I have to do is save up but am getting her re-sprayed before new mags. I need a 2nd job just to pay for all the things I want/need for Sherbie 😂 Hubby just sits here rolling his eyes as the list is growing but as he got his Harley I still have some leverage.

Dave i reccon your previous wheels look better on your bug. My mum has those wheels on her liberty but i reccon that style is'nt as good as the ones you got already on it.

They aren't my previous wheels. I still have them on the car. I just tried them on to see what they looked like (as it says at the very top)
