if im not mistaken, i think they use a 4 lug pattern on the rally cars. A wee bit different then the stockers

the OEM BBS 17" wheels are essentially "WRC tarmac replica wheels" from BBS ...

the WRC BBS tarmac wheels are 18x8, +11 offset, 4 lugs

i don't know the specs for the WRC BBS snow and gravel wheels though haha

maybe they were trying to save alittle weight. They might have realized that the car is stiff enough with 4 studs instead of 5? just a guess
