Before I bought the car it was hard to confirm this. The closest I found was a 11+ WRX hatch wearing Team Dynamics 15s.

So here's my confirmation.
2011 WRX hatch with Speedline Corse 15x7 on. Barely enough room to clear the calipers.


Thanks! I was looking for some 15" wheels not long ago, but decided to put them off for now.

Question Will these wheels fit on a 2015 wrx ?

Hi, I'm new to the forum, but not to WRXs. Currently have a 2010, and ordered a 2015. The delivery date is around November so I have to make sure I have snow tires ready.

I know the 2010 wheels won't fit, but I have some from a Mitsubishi Spyder. They are 17 diameter, 7" wide, about 5 3/4" offset (146 mm ?) with I believe the correct bolt pattern. Are these ok for snows ? It doesn't seem like tire rack has steels for the 2015 WRX yet.

thanks in advance
Bruce

That offset sounds wacky, might want to double check. Otherwise those should work if the bolt pattern is 5x100.

That's probably backspacing. I don't feel like doing the math, but it should probably be pretty close.

You won't be able to get enough out of bolts in the rear to gain enough camber, and you will need more adjustment than the front OEM bolts can offer.

hay look: my old wheels LOL.





235/40. you will NOT need a roll. no fender mods. slap them on and call it a day. They won't be that close to flush, but they will probably be "flush enough" for you.



those tires are WAYYYY too tall. 235/40/18 would be far better. You will probably need to roll the fronts.

anybody know what lip kit he is running the the sides and rear?

Yep. HT autos.

sideskirts required some modification as they weren't designed for the wagon (06-07 wagons had the weird factory skirt different than all the other years sedan/wagon).

Sup guys,

looking into buying THESE (http://newyork.craigslist.org/wch/pts/4640294252.html) rims.

18x9.5 38 offset. Not sure of tire profile, but it seems like a 225/235 maybe. I'm dropped on ISC coils. Would I be able to fit these on a 2009 wrx?

Those look like a 225/35 tire. They will fit, but you'll need a slight pull in the back and I'd roll the front fenders.

You mean these wheels?



You need a +22 to clear Brembos. I run -3.5 camber in the rear with a mild pull to fit them. I'm also on a 225/40 tire tho.

There shouldn't be any fender clearance issues, but the 9 +43 XD9s might not clear Brembos.

What would be the best tire sizes for each wheel to fit with a complete stock setup?

Looking to get rid of wheel gap and have a more aggressive look without making multiple modifications.

either one of those will fit fine.

there is no such thing as reducing wheel gap without lowering the car.

Would I be safe running a 265/35R18 on either setup without rubbing issues or would it be better to use a 255/35?

I have a 2012 wrx, looking into getting a winter set up. Found some nokian hakkapeliittas on steelies locally for $500. The question is would 195/65/r15 work on my car? I've tried searching but can't come up with much or anything definitive.
Thanks in advance.

Probably not going to work. I doubt that 15" steelies would clear your brakes.

On the 9" wheel, you could do the 265/35, though the 255 will fit better.

Both of those tires are too wide for an 8" wheel - in that case I'd consider a 245/35 or 235/40.

steelies most likely wont clear your brakes. only select 15" wheels clear the wrx brakes, and they are all competition rally wheels.
