I've had them for a while. I ended up buying a few different sets and selling the fronts. Now, I have 5 rears. (a full set and a spare).

^ can i buy the spare?


great pick up on the car. not sure if they settled all the minor issues with that car yet. heard many things bad about the motor. similiar to stories i've heard about the rev-up motors before i got here.

Great functional car. I think the STI is a lot more functional then a G. the hatch can be very useful. I've been tempted to look at the 09 WRX 5 door.

Oooh nice. Now i have an idea of how my wheels are going to look. I have the same ones but im going with glossy black.

Looks like you got some thick rubber on the tracks, looks like a 265?

You might want to make sure the bolt pattern is correct regarding the Z wheels. Unless Subaru has changed their bolt pattern recently, the bolt patterns are off by a few millimeters between Nissan makes and Subarus. Years ago I tried to put my wife's 98 Legacy GT rims on my 96 Maxima and Subaru bolt pattern was off a bit.

What's the performance like with the Cobb stage 1 reflash? I know the STIs aren't really quicker than the newer WRXs, but I know the STIs make some stellar gains with the reflash. Nice ride, btw. Good choice with the taillights too. Apparently Subaru didn't get the memo that the clear taillight fad ended back 2004.

Just find it funny that you drove a rwd car in place that snows (Denver) and switched to an AWD car in a place that's doesn't (AZ).

.
he should be good. normally 5x100 is the suby way but they changed it up on the 04 or 05 STI only to go with the more JDMish bolt pattern of 114.3

maybe it was due to BBS and they didn't want to make new wheels. the 114.3 was only on the STI's the offset is what i'm not sure of because suby run higher offsets like +50 's

either way i want that spare track wheel

Sorry, not willing to ship the spare.

The only STI that was 5x100 was the 2004MY. In 2005, the regular WRX is 5x100 and the STI went to 5x114.3.

Tires are Nitto NT05 in 245/40/18 on the Track wheels.

A simple Stage1 OTS reflash from Cobb has seen typical gains of 20 AWHP and 45 ft/lbs of torque! That's with NO other mods.

The G35 has always been in Arizona. I sold it to a local couple. I simply flew to Colorado to buy the STI and proceeded to drive it back home, to AZ.
