BK207 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Hello all, I'm hoping that someone here can tell me who makes the wheels found on the 1991-1993 Legacy and 1994-1996 Impreza Group A Rally cars. I have seen a bunch of pictures, but havent been able to find the maker of the wheels. They are Bronze/Gold 6 spoke wheels, but I never seem to see a sponsor sticker anywhere for them. So if anyone knows who made/makes them, and where I could maybe find a set I'd really appreciate it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like that was on Colin's old car. They dont look like 6 spoke though so we'd need a picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffzguy Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I doubt these are them but I ran across a few pairs on ebay and loved them. They are made by Technocast and are Corsair Rally wheels. http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b192/00vr6gti/wheels001-1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legacy Wagon Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 As for the rims, I thought you were talking about the Legacy, not the Impreza rally car. As for the Rota's: No, no, a thousand times no. Rota's suck...poor quality. http://lh5.ggpht.com/_NRSDCBt4i-U/Sb5GPOeq9dI/AAAAAAAACfY/vqjIplCfuJ4/Rota%20wheels.jpg http://www.acuraworld.com/forums/attachments/f46/19937d1118609139-issues-hre-wheels-hrea.jpghttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploads11/rotamotivation1195624239.jpg http://oi35.tinypic.com/24dmy5c.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BK207 Posted February 11, 2011 Author Share Posted February 11, 2011 I thought that the wheels were the same between the Legacy and Imprezas, but if not I prefer the Impreza. I just found a new picture, they are defintiely not the Speedlines. http://media.photobucket.com/image/Prodrive%20Legacy/EJ25RUN/CarScoop-Legacy.jpg?t=1221504162 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legacy Wagon Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 I would say go with Compomotive. They've been around forever and have provided for a lot of rally cars over the years. And they look BA. http://www.jdmplace.com/sharing/files/DSC02993.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffzguy Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Could be that the engine is out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Must be a RWD conversion, I see no front axle nut... There's no rear axle nut either. The car was sans engine and drivetrain, the 6-speed that was in it is now being aggressively time-attacked. Even if it were a RWD conversion, you can't NOT have an outer CV joint in place. That's what actually holds the wheel bearings together. No joint, no nut, wheel can literally fall off. http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii287/bac52/DSC01349.jpg [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/proper-flip-key-interesti-159894.html"]Flip Key Development Thread[/URL] "Genius may have its limitations, but stupidity is not thus handicapped." - E.

PRT Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Hello all, I'm hoping that someone here can tell me who makes the wheels found on the 1991-1993 Legacy and 1994-1996 Impreza Group A Rally cars. I have seen a bunch of pictures, but havent been able to find the maker of the wheels. They are Bronze/Gold 6 spoke wheels, but I never seem to see a sponsor sticker anywhere for them. So if anyone knows who made/makes them, and where I could maybe find a set I'd really appreciate it. First, there was different manufacturers depending on what era, car model and surface type. The Legacy Group A started rallying on Tecnomagnesio. 15" 16 " 17" specialy in the BRC. I don't know the model name. Nothing is written on my set of 16". After that it got Speedline for wheels. Gravel: 15" Safari (Acropoli) 2011 Snow: 16" Tarmac: 17" Champion 2010 The Impreza GrpA (93-96) had Gravel: 15" Safari (Acropoli) 2011 Snow: 16" Tarmac: 18-19" Supertourismo 2013 Later Impreza WRC had OZ Racing. Don't buy WRC/Group A wheels for your street car. Offset and bore is different. Won't fit. Make sure they are the street "version" not the motorsport one.
