Works, rays, weds, enkei they're all made in 5x100. If you want a deeper offset get a 5x114.3 17x9 with a custom PCB. You just have to wait and it's a bit costly.

This is the issue: married, in the Navy, and the only 'real' set I want is some nice TE37V's.

I love deep dish rims but I am also just thinking what other options are there if I jump to 18's. And I agree, why did subaru/toyota decide to go with this lug pattern? There are conversions but I elected to go with a lease since I wanted out of my last car but still wanted a sports car that was much more afforable. So doing a hub conversion simply isn't a feasible option. And I worry that with using spacers that the offset will end up being so low then nothing will fit right.

I'm not too much of a wheel snob...and to be honest I ran some 531's in 16x8+5 (custom offset) on an S13 with a meatier tire. I had a pretty slammed Mazdaspeed6 with a 225/45/18 stretched on a 9" Work Emotion XD9 set. That was as stretched as I wanted it to be. I think I'm into the meatier tire look.
I was going to run a hub converiosn but fucking Megan Racing is charging close to $700? What the fuck? Way to prey on new owners. I think it's bullshit that a cheap Megan product is double the price just because it's in demand.
