^Thanks! I'll delete the post. I searched through the aggressive wheel fitment thread but its mostly wheel set ups designed to maximize traction.

Offset for 2014 WRX rims?
This thread is a great resource! Not terribly surprised that the 2014 WRX isn't listed because the model year is pretty new.
I have a set of Black Racing Pro N1 17x7.5 with +48 offset from my former 2002 WRX, and I am thinking of using them to mount winter tires for my 2014. Does anyone have the offset for the original equipment 17x8 rims on the 2014? I need to figure out whether my rims will work on the '14. Thanks! |

2012 Impreza Premium Size: 16x6.5" Offset: +48 Bolt pattern: 5x100 Weight: 18.6 (estimate) OEM-equipped tire size: 205/55R16 Just weighed a rim today and my scale came back at 15 lbs even with wheel weights, tpms and valve stem. I'm going to verify this on a different scale thought. Edited: weighed on a postal scale at 16lbs oz. Last edited by Sticman; 12-20-2013 at 09:05 PM. |

I am looking at a set of the 2002-2005 Impreza and WRX wheels that are on page-1 of this thread. Both are identical dimension-wise, except for the offset. The Impreza has a +55, while the WRX has a +53.
The stock steel wheels on my 95 Impreza wagon are +55 and I've chosen to use these now solely as my winter tire wheels. I will not swapping tires anymore, so looking at the wheels I mentioned above for my spring-fall tires. Will the +53 wheels fit fine on my Impreza or should I stick with the +55? I can't see it being an issue, but wanted to check before I go after either wheel choice. Thanks! |

I know, and I was actually hesitant about asking, but I'd rather be safe than sorry. Didn't know if there was a reason for the difference between the wheel for the Impreza and the one for the WRX. Thanks for helping me answer my own question.

Not sure of it's been posted but I didn't see it on the original lineup. 06-07 Impreza 2.5i OEM wheels by Enkei 16x6.5 et55 Don't have them measured separately but the OEM Potenza RE92A weighs 21 lbs per the Bridgestone site and the combined weight is 38.7 lbs. So I'd say the wheel weight is around 17.7 lbs. References:

how much would a 4th gen stock wheel go for you think and how hard is it to get those/price? I shaved mine and want to replace it.

So has anyone got a photo of those BG5 wheels on a classic, i.e. GC8, Impreza at all? I'm considering a set for my 406 silver Impreza turbo

In looking through this thread, I've determined that the 2011 OEM wheel for the WRX is 17x8 +53.
Is it safe to assume this carried throughout the subsequent years? I know the 2013 and 2014 are identical, but I cannot seem to find any post in this thread that specifically mentions those years (or if there was a change after 2011). The latest I could find was the 2011 post. Thanks! BC |

OK. Sorry if I am just too dense to understand this, but according to the "Offset Nirvana" post, a 8" wide rim should have an offset between +43 and +47.
If that's the case, why does the OEM rim have an offset of +53? I'm not trying to be difficult, I'm just trying to understand. Thanks in advance! BC Last edited by zeitgeist; 01-26-2014 at 05:01 PM. |

But OEM isn't always (usually not) optimal. |
