Wondering if my STi wheels whould fit the FD?

Proxy One · 03-21-2008, 02:27 PM

I have some 17x8.5 Gram Lights 57s's on the STi and just had a thought that maybe they would fit the FD. They are +48 offset all around I think, so I would think they should fit. This would be great info as I could use the same set of Auto-X tires on both cars, hehe.

yeah they will fit no prob but not ideal as the front will be out further than the back.

??? The stock offset is +50 on all corners.

But they should fit fine. What size tire??

245/40/17 tires will work well. or maybe 255/40 if you want

I thought that Subaru has a wierd offset or something? I swear to god I heard that they have a benz like 5x112 size or something simmilar.

Was I told wrong?

i believe the 06-07 STi models had the 5x114.3 pattern, the previous years had 5x100
