FastRaft WRX 06-07-2006 04:21 PM

well i know that .35mm and .48mm offsets fit soo i would assume that they would

I'm sure it will fit, you can always get spacers to make it flush:: :thumbup:

thats something i dont want to do. want a direct fit

Spacers ftw. lol, jk. I didn't need spacers on my dsm, they fit flush. Not sure how they'll fit on Subarus.

If we can work out a way to meet up this weekend we'll try it out to see how they fit fadedSTI.

18s man 17s are going to look small

I think some people have a +43 offset on their (05 STi) wheels.

Check out IWSTI. [\whispers]

The stock STi wheels should be a 53mm offset, so a 44 will make them stick out a little further. It should work if you're not too low, but beware there may be some rubbing issues depending on your selected tire size. I had one rub with my WRX with my 42mm offset rally wheels + tyres (the tyres are ever so slightly taller than my street tires) around a hard drift + rock. They should fit over STi brakes, however, it may impact the overall life of your wheel bearings, and possibly handling to a very small degree.


My $0.02.

Well if you want them to be perfect, pretty much the only way thats going to happen is to buy brand new wheels. Or check Nasioc or IwSTi.
