So you want sunraysia style rims on your Brumby?

There are 14' rims available from Speedy that suit the Subaru 140 x 4 stud pattern and are available from most tyre retailers for around $75 each


Will look like this with standard size tyres

Or this with a lift and bigger size tyres

Decoding....... (all apologies up front)

He either wants to do a six stud conversion or redrill 6 stud rims to suit 4 stud holes.

6 stud conversion

http://offroadingsubarus.com/6stud_conversion.html

which as well should give him some information about 6 stud rims available to re-drill

otherwise he is looking for a burger, fries and shake :)

What are you going to use the rims for - are you lifted? OR just after standard diametre tyre size with the 14 inch rim??

Some background info can really help.

They didn't rub at standard height with Coyotes (Sunny equivalent).

They don't rub with Scorpions at lowered height, (current wheels), rims have more positive offset.

thanks for that. Seems that 185/60/14 is good and I would only have problems with something like a 205.

now to find a cheap set!
