WTB Summer Tires for wrx

[Ray]

Looking for some summers for a 16" rim. Would like 205's or up to 225's. What do all you hooligans have?

Direzza Star Spec, 225/50-16s. Worn but still quite phat n usable. $200.

Tahrs is in Camden, u pickem up. [[Hakka snows in pics NOT for sale]]

 

[Ray]

those would fit on a stock wrx rim fine right?

 

[Nigel Prodrive]

I ran em on 16x7 RS 6-spokes

 

[Ray]

wrx rims are 16x6.5, I wonder if they will work...

 

[IBratmanI]

They should work just fine

bumpin up!

tires still available, Ray wants something different. The Star Specs are at edge of what's inspectable, down to 3/32 in places on 2 of the tires, the other have 4 or 5/32nds.

be great for autoX or track, or short-term dd duty

Gummy!

After reviewing them I may break down and buy a brandy new set of them. I really like them.
