Ohh really?!
That sucks.... sorry, but what is PCD?Below car has been gone for quite some time now... blew bottom end bearing and dealership screwed me! Now driving 2008 WRX with ~65k kms on the clock. Only has cat back exhaust and tune by KiDo at the moment! More to come... but slowly!
Purchased recently (12/11/2013), already with: Stage 2 Pedders lowered springs, rear Whiteline sway bar, Advan Racing TCII 18x8 wheels, k&N pod filter, custom 3" exhaust system from turbo back with Magnaflow mufflers. ECUTEK tune of some sort (hopefully soon to be fixed)..... now FIXED!! Now KiDo Tuned!
Added: HID kit, EZ lip equivalents to the front and sides, and various LED treatments, oem boot spoiler, [LGT WRC] plates, GFB Respons BOV for extra Pssscchhh! --> Gone... I couldn't afford it's heart transplant... but keep a look out, as it will come back on sale soon!

In addition to the pictures which better describe it, and only for those interested, PCD = Pitch Circle Diameter

Yes, thanks smythie, i am now much better informed!

I posted this on another forum, I believe different widths does wear out the centre diff sooner
I am no physicist but with the AWD vs different widths. Rolling diameter is extremely important because your talking changing ratios but I would have thought it was the rolling resistance that makes the difference as well? eg. If the rear rims/tyres are wider that means more force would be required to drive the rear drive train in turn putting more stress on the components.
Its not that it would cause it to cause wear immediately but more so it will cause the components to wear out quicker than normal. ie. lowering your car wears the standard bushes out more quickly
