Has anyone ever used STi rims from say a 2004 model? I believe they're made by BBS (not that it matters) but I saw a cheap-ish set on CL and wondered what they'd look like on a Mini.

 

I don't think they are the right bolt pattern.. Everything I've ever read about them says they are 5x100, when ours is 5x114.3

 

Looked again, 05-07 STi (5x114.3 bolt pattern)...so not 04 but the bolt pattern is correct.

 

Good to know!

 

...knowing is half the battle!

 

I've wondered the same about some of those gold 12 spokes they have. What's the width and offset of them?

 

05+ STI wheels are 5x114.3, everything else is 5x100

 

Well, they might be gone. Just searched again and can't find them. They were the 10 spokes. Not sure the width or offset. Gonna keep an eye out for a set or may just Google search the hell out of 'em now. Wouldn't mind a silver set, or if they were gold I could Plasti Dip or Powder Coat. Well...IF

 

05-07 STi's are 17x8's +53

08-13 STI's are 18x8.5 +55

 

Just noticed this...

Didn't copy the pic but it's the ones I was talking about. I guess we missed out due to catastrophic failure. Anyone curious can link back to it though.
