Hey just a quick question i have a 91 turbo and i'm lookin at putting new wheels on and there are some not bad deals on ebay for like 2004/2005 wrx 16" wheels with 205/55 r16 tires, would that set up work on my car or not?

There more people here with WRX wheels than with stock Turbo Legacy wheels.

The 04 wheels are different than the 05 wheels (design, specs are the same).

They will indeed fit fine as will many other Subaru 16" wheels (including the 16x7 wheels from the 98-01 2.5RS, which is what my Legacy currently has). Note that to keep your speedo/odo close to correct, you may want to opt for a 205/50-16 tire as it is much closer to stock diameter than the 205/55-16 is.

Heck..... I almost think the WRX wheels look better on our cars than they do on the WRXes.

The '05s are much better looking than the '02-'04s, IMHO.

you might consider finding some without tires, RE92's(the stock WRX tire) are pretty crappy.
Ive got WRX wheels with the RE92's, I'll be putting some 215/50/16 kumho 712's on there once I wear out the RE92's.
and they do look better on BC's than on a WRX(well the BC is a better looking car anyway )

i personaly dont like the wrx wheels that much. im more into the rs outback bugeye 5 spokes. more simple.

umm.. aren't the wrx wheels 5spoke, as well?

Tris, he's talking about these:



I like the WRX wheels on BC/BF's but like 597,642 people on this board already have them on their cars (no offense guys ), so those OB wheels would look good and different....

i like 'em too, now that i know what he's talking about.
Aren't they heavier, for OB application? (no tampon jokes, dudes.)
I figured that since the OB is a different beast, built for different things, the wheels might reflect that, since they're made for it.
