FS : 17x8 Rota Torque, Silver, 5x100, set of 4

For Sale : used set of Rota Torques, 5x100 bolt pattern, silver, 17x8". These DO clear the STI Brembos, and will fit on pretty much every 5-lug Subaru except for an 05+ STI

The wheels are in pretty good shape, not perfect (say, 8 out of 10). No curbage, no bends, minor paint chips in spots from R&R from the car (I used them as autocross wheels, thus were R&R'ed quite a bit). They are "ok" on cleanliness on the outside, could use being washed though

They include some tires on them (Hankook RS2, 235/40R17, at the wear bars and with camber wear on them), but, ummm, well I am not gonna guarantee anything on the tires other than they are round and hold air . These rims basically should be taken to a tire shop and have new rubber put on them pretty soon.

In consideration of shape (fairly good, could use cleaning) and tires (umm, there and that's about it!), they are priced at $450 OBO. I am located in Santa Clara, can meet you in the evening anywhere within 50 miles or so from here if need be.

Cash talks

PM me if interested!

Yes, they'll fit any year WRX. Note that you might need to roll your rear fenderlips for clearance on a wagon (I did), but I doubt it'd be an issue on a sedan.

Also, forgot to mention that you MIGHT need tuner lugnuts (or at the very least, a thin wall socket on OEM lugnuts) for these wheels. I no longer have any OEM lugnuts, so I can't check and tell you for sure. I have an old set of splinedrive lugnuts with key....unfortunately only 19 of the lugnuts (one got cross-threaded and munched up on a bad lug). I'll throw them in with the wheels and you can get extras on the lugnuts from Subydude for $2.25 each.

Call Subydude to be sure, but if I recall correctly about 18 lbs. Not bad for a cast 17x8". I know at the time I got them it was the lightest Rota that would clear the Brembos AND was 17x8" (autocross class I ran in limited to 8.0" wide wheels).
