XT and XT6 wheels; how many lugs

Featured Replies

I just saw an xt (might have been an xt6, didnt look close enough. It looked like it was junked an I was thinking I could get the directional alloys off of it. They looked like the same ones I have seen on normal ea82 cars. Are they the same lug pattern?

depends the xt has the standard subaru pattern

the xt-6 has the legacy bolt pattren

Thanks. That's what I thought, but wasn't sure. BTW, I meant "motion" when I said "directional" wheels.

if the xt6 has a complete suspension in the front and rear disks... grab them and the wheels and do the five lug swap... opens up a world of wheel options usually can be done for 150 in jy parts with the exception of wheels

the first sube i did a 5 lug swap on i used an xt6 that had wheels that were very similar to the enkei motions... slots are a little wider though

were there 5 lug versions of the motion alloys?
if there the ones on the xt in suberdaves photo yes but if their the ones i'm thinking of no

No, there was never a 13" version of the XT6 5-lug. The XT6 alloys had 5 spokes. (Edit: The bolt spacing on the XT6 alloy was 5 x 100mm. Subarus with that lug pattern include the Legacy, Outback, Impreza except '05 and later WRX STi, Forester and Baja. The SVX was 5 x 113.4mm and won't fit anything but the '05 & later STI and vice versa.)

 

There was this:

the 13" 4 x 140mm "Motion" alloy, but that had 6 spokes and larger centercaps.

 

They do look similar though. (Personally I prefer the 13" Motions)
