Will 245/45/18 tires fit on the stock limited WRX wheels, stock suspension?

Yes. 245/40R18 is factory size so your tire will just have a little taller sidewall.

Would that taller side wall fit under the fenders though?

Used to be a common wheel fitment for sti, you'll find plenty of google images of stis running them. So all good.

Short answer yes.
Your tire would be about 12mm taller, almost half an inch. But with stock wheels your inset in plenty far enough I wouldn't worry about contacting the outer lip of the fender. If anything you may rub on the inside of the wheel well/fender liner if the susp compresses enough (hard bumps etc).

Basically no, those will stick out about an inch and half more than can be fit without fender mods. I'm sure it could be done but you would be looking at rolled AND pulled fenders and good amount of negative camber with stretched tires. If your ok with that then maybe something like 245/45 on the 10.5" width wheel would offer pretty decent stretch. If they make them in a 18x10 +40 that would be a better option. Would still need to roll fenders for sure in rear but would otherwise be pretty decent fit and could run a wider tire like a 265/35.

Getting gramlights 57c6 18x9.5 +38 with 265/35/18 tires. Going to be installing RCE yellows.

Expected to rub? Should I roll fenders?

Based off previous comments, I think the rears will rub slightly on larger dips with 265/35 on stock springs. With the Yellows, I'd roll the rears to be safe.

Still have to add the RCE Yellows to the mix. Have the box in hand but it might be another couple months before the install..



Do/did you have any rubbing or turning issues with this setup?

You won't rub at stock height or lowered on RCE's/similar spring. 265/35 seems to be the tire size where people are having to roll the rears.

AV-20 18x9.5 with a 255/35 tire - On RCE yellows

They also have em in 18x8.5 but I have no idea what tire i would get with those. Basically I just want a set I can bolt up that sits flush with no rubbing or turning issues at all. I have looked through literally every single page in this thread and all I have now is a headache lol.

Will that set up top fit without any issue at all, if not what is a good tire size to go with those. If 9.5 is to wide then what size tire would you guys rec for the 8.5in wheel.

Thanks in advance and sorry for being THAT guy
