It should all fit well, tire size is great for winters actually, and I know some local guys running Subaru 16" wheels without issue. I would verify and test fit (on the front) to make sure it is the 5x100 bolt pattern wheels and that they clear the brakes.

Thanks Slick. Anyone else? I'm going to look at the wheels today and am prepared to buy them on the spot if they are as described. Just want to know if anyone knows if these will fit for sure. Thanks.

Ask him what year/model his WRX is. From there, you should be able to confirm what bolt pattern and offset.

Or if you are going to look at them, bring your jack and pull one of your wheels to try.

18x11 +20 on all 4 corners with a rocket bunny kit? What type of modifications would have to be done to make wheels that wide fit up front?

[Slick]

Same as these?

5x100 +55 offset, good to go.

Or should i go with a 225/40/17 to be safe?

BTW i have the SPC rear camber arms and BC coils going on as well.

If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it!

Hey guys, can anyone else confirm that this will fit with little to no issue? I appreciate the previous answer but just want to make sure! gonna buy the tires in a couple days.

Did you search the fitment chart? That setup will fit but I can't confirm how much negative camber depending on how low you go. I had no issues with 235/45 on a wheel 2mm lower offset than this. Both tires you're talking about are shorter, so even less issue.

If you go with 225, stick with 45 sidewall. 235 can go 40/45, neither one is dead on, but 245/40 is about the same height as stock.

Hell, TiC had 9.5" wide +30s on their car, with 265s I believe. IIRC, they even had this on stock suspension before going to coilovers.

I'm looking at a set of 2000 Impreza 2.5RS rims for a winter setup. I believe the rim size is 16x7 with a 45mm offset or 53mm offset. Would these work on the BRZ? What tire size is receommended?

Look further up the page for pretty much the same setup.
205/55R16 is the ideal tire, very close to OEM diameter. Those rims should work fine as the 2.5RS was on 5x100 bolt pattern.

Good info on tires ill86.

But OP you may want to check this thread. That offset is extremely tight, especially with a drop.
