Anybody ever seen or have any 12" factory Subaru alloy rims? I found one place advertising them online. I imagine they would be pretty rare....

I'll give up a trade secret, if you are just looking for a plain set of 12" steel rims, but would like ones that aren't all rusty, look for temporary spares in Nissan Micras at the wreckers. Rims fit perfectly, and even though the tire is a temporary spare, the rim is exactly the same as the running tires on the car. And the majority of the time, the temporary spare has not even been out of the trunk, so is in perfect condition. Might have to do a little bit of convincing at the tire shop to get them to put a regular tire on a rim that had a temporary spare on it! I swapped the lug nuts too, since the hole size was a little bigger on the micra. Pattern lined right up though. Grab the tire wrench too, the lug nuts are a little bigger.

I have never seen any 12" alloys, the factory cars all had 12" steel or 13" alloys.
