Cheers for replying I didn’t know that there was two types. And truth be told I was hoping that another model would have had an 18 so I could bought the spare for that but I will look into the bigger tyre route

Yup the mounting point is the cone in the photo I put up earlier I’ve got that off the spare now and the wheel is fine just two sizes too small compared to what’s on there I don’t really want to limp home and end up doing some damage if that makes sense

The cone I’m holding is the part of wheel well, that the “holding pin” I guess it’s called goes into that holds it place, the car had a small leak coming though the boot when I bought it but didn’t think much of it at the time (rose tinted glasses and all that) but it’s bit me back I’ll upload a photo when I get chance to properly show what I mean

Cheers for replying, I thought as much as was hoping maybe another model would have had an 18 so I could get one, I just didn’t take a chance with the 16 as I’ve seen 18” inch one which was off a vw with the same 5x100 but assumed the bore would be very different might just go the buy a single alloy

Hey all I joined back in June after buying a bugeye wrx but thought I’ll wait till I need help/advice before post something I recently put a topic up under the wheel/suspension section and I’m waiting there for a reply there so thought I’d try my luck here also, so my question here is has anyone got any tips/idea on what 5x100 18 inch space saver would work as my spare is the standard 16 inch and well did this when I tried to get it out see attached and cheers for taking the time to read this so sorry for the long post so here’s my bug before I put the standard light back in

Hey all I’m fairly new to the Impreza world having just bought my 02 bugeye wrx around July and I’m looking for advice on where the best place is to get an 18 inch space saver or what other companies (eg:vw) wheels with the same 5x100 pattern would work as I recently discovered that my spare is the standard 16 inch space saver and came out like this (see attached) thankfully I managed to get to a tire shop on the tire with the nail in but I’d much rather not do that again. Any advice will be appreciated thanks
