steptoe is right STiMAV, they are Performance Superlites in 15 x 7, made right here in Australia. Can't remember the offset but the PCD is just the Subaru 4 stud pattern 4x140. Check them out

does having no thermostat mean you used a restricter of some sort, or does the distance the coolant is travelling mean you have fewer overheating problems and more keeping the coolant hot?

When we first plumbed the radiator in the back, I let the EJ water pump do all the work to see what would happen. It couldn't keep up as the temp was very erratic. Then I added the smallest Davis-Craig water pump (there make 2 sizes), kept the thermostat and wired the pump to run with the ignition (full time). It worked great and ran so cool that if you leave the fans running when the car is idling, they will pull the temp down to ambient. But it was difficult to prime, so now the pump is switched independently and with no thermostat I can pump coolant through the entire system without the motor running. I can also now leave the water pump off when the engines cold so it warms up faster.
