They also done the 17s in Subaru fitment as some Impreza's had them fitted from factory.

About the right price for 15" wheels. Are his the 17s tho??? If so then that's a bargain.

Nope.
They were speedlines, but not mistrals.

Nope, different wheel.

Correct.

did minstrals not get made first
Difficult to say but Alessio 1 - without the centre cap - preceeded Alessio 2 so I would guess that puts Alessio 2 a bit later.

Yes, certainly more rare than Alessio 2 because they weren't made for as long.
