January 20, 200620 yr Ok, here are some pics of my 14" steel pugs I had on my '85 brat that are about to go for sale (I got 6-lug now w00t! )... I am concidering putting them on Ebay since I think they might not be the ideal off-set for use on a Subaru ... I only had rubbing issues with 28" Super Swampers TSL's (worked fine with 27" coopers), and I could have to bashed in the front Uni-body rail to keep them from rubbing just slightly on that in hard corners on the inside with the outer 3rd side lugs (I know, I am picky ... just ask Nels! (Free-range) ) And I have been told by John (Mudrat79) that they probubly wouldn't even rub at all on a EA-82 car, but I don't want to mis-represet them, and if they are sorta rare, maybe they would be worth more to a Peugeot restorer? **** P.S. **** the off-set is 4.75 (If I am measuring correctly from the inside of the rim to the bead)
January 20, 200620 yr Seems to me we're all paying what the market will bear? If the collectors wanted them they'd be out bidding us or driving the price up at the local Junkyards. Having said all that, you probably will get more on Ebay for anything you sell? My .02 Glenn

I'd be fine with what the average going price is for 5 pug steels (about $120 I believe) just want to make sure these wheels aren't a different of an off-set. I can sell them here ... I just don't want someone to buy them here and discover they aren't the right wheels ... that is why I am being extra carefull that these are the right pugs ... what is the off-set of your pugs Glenn? I have been told that the pugs with 6 or 12 round or oval holes are the ideal off-set ... what is the actual off-set of a 6 or 12 hole wheel?
January 21, 200620 yr the back-spacing on the round hole pugs is 4.5", but stock ea81 wagon wheels are 4.75"... here's the wagon wheel differences infor from the wheels page... http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/80s/wheels2/wagdiff.jpg most pug owners are looking for 15" alloys...
January 21, 200620 yr Author Ahh ... good then the 14" pugs I have are just .25 closer than the other pug wheels, and that is the stock off-set for an EA-82 ... good to know ... ty
