The P1 belongs to Gary and Tabatha who live in the same street as us. They will be joining the WR1oc when they have sorted out a PC for themselves. If you go back 3 photos you can see Gary watching the dyno.

Might have to try with the set I have in the garage. Mind, the 17 inch wheels with the higher profile tyres look like they would offer the same ride height....?

The STI comes with 17's as standard, so yes they do fit over the Brembo callipers.


Oh, a comment that is constructive, must stop that.

Yes they do fit over the brembos.... They are just the standard STi wheels which have Brembos too.... Wake up Spike..... In addition Chelspeed has them on in the photo! Do you think he smacked them on with a hammer?
