2006 Impreza R Sport wants WRX or STI wheels - do they fit?
Got before and after shots of the spacers in this thread - only went for 20mm but they line up just nicely IMO

not saying its a bad idea necessarily - just what will fit and what wont - I get the need to fill out the arches a bit hence why I went with the spacers myself Doesn't sound like STI rims will fit from the same year - consider spacers to fill out the arches from a width perspective and retain your existing rims £180 for all four corners (I recently learned spacers are sold in pairs) or go for new alloys with a bigger offset, in this case you could opt for a larger diameter also for a firmer ride and again aesthetics - either way feel free to keep us posted

Wotcha and welcome - check the PCD to confirm but ill wager the STI rims will not fit due to having a different hub. My 08 sport has a PCD fitment of 100 x 5 I believe the STI has a PCD of 114 x 5 and as such the wheels are not inter changeable without an adapter plate With a smaller tyre wall you will get a slightly stiffer ride, potentially less lateral movement of the tyre during hard cornering should improve the feel etc. to fill out the arches on mine I have just invested in 20mm spacers - that is a possible alternative if you like the wheels and ride you currently have

williams synthetic coat
Reads well http://www.williamscarproducts.com.my/index.php?route=synthetic_coat I have used the silicon product they have compared the ceramic coat to and would agree whilst it gave a great shine finish the previous sealant and wax finish was a better solution - would be interested in feedback myself

Help regarding WRX bonnet on RX hatchback
You shouldn't have a problem - rusty bolts on both the STI I had and the current RX tended to be around the edge of the engine bay nowhere near the scoop airflow - apart from the bolts holding the scoop in place on the bonnet they rusted - I believe - due to the sound proofing blanket holding damp overnight

RX Auto Hatch 08
Thanks - no issues fitting - straight forward, as I will be doing the other pair later this week ill take couple of extra shots The Integra is the lad next door - the aim is when I get some boost back in my life ill take him out try and give him a different perspective but its a tidy vehicle, he spends a lot of time maintaining etc Hadnt looked at the reflection - thinking now I should go and rinse all the snow foam away
