Pavoni8297 Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 I can get a used set of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R and they are run flats...I am going to use 17X7 06 WRX RIMS can I use them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadowsports Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 No. You need special wheels which can handle the vehicle load under a zero pressure situation. Also, the Legacy suspension might not be up to the increased rigidity of the tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krzyss Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 As far as I know this type RFT can be mounted on regular rims. However you better have working TPMS and your suspension will be dealing with heavier than designed for tires. Krzys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pavoni8297 Posted January 1, 2012 Author Share Posted January 1, 2012 the 06 Spec B has no TPMS.....a set of 4 used one season seemed interesting.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krzyss Posted January 1, 2012 Share Posted January 1, 2012 If you have no TPMS you would need to check tire pressure probably daily. You will have no visual clue that tire is low on pressure and you will have no pull from flat tire when driving untill tire fails. Quite demanding, I think. But it is your life.
