Are WRX (say 98-99) stud pattern same as FTO?

How is the offset?

"Anyone know of any popular WRX forums in Australia?"

We have a new forum down here in Tassie, http://www.erexion.org. :-)

There is http://www.rexnet.com.au for general Australia wide stuff and there should also be clubs in each state.

I know http://www.wrx.com.au is for the Vic club, not sure about the others.

Cheers

Do WRX wheels fit FTO?

I did a search, it seems that FTO is 5 X 114.3 where as WRX is 5 X 100?

I am not sure from what model exactly they are from, but they are off a MY98 type WRX (before bug eye)

:(
Do any of the Mitsubishi range of 276mm brakes come in the PCD of the WRX?
Magna?

As far as i'm aware, all Subaru have different PCD pattern to all Mitsubishi, but that doesn't mean you can't change the whole kit to fit though. Just lots of money for the sake of getting the PCD for a set of wheels
thats all.

I guess for that amount of money may as well go and buy some nice wheels :)
