which STI wheel are you talking about..!? the 16" or 17"..??

For wheel size, it will fit... but I don't know about the offset..^^"

j1a7y · Jul 2, 2009, 11:09 AM

thanks for the reply. its a 17x8 and i believe the offset is +43-47. Im not sure about the center bore. would it fit ok?

momokoo · Jul 2, 2009, 11:33 AM

According to this... the offset is +53"... the stock is +46"... with that offset... you need to ask the professional.....

um... I saw the picture of the wheel... the centre hub looks so small.....
Are you buying it on the net..!? Why don't you ask the seller to measure the hold for the centre hub..?? Our center hub is 67mm.

yes im getting it online. the guy selling it said that it is +53, would that be too high/? im still waiting for the center hub size.

j1a7y · Jul 2, 2009, 12:07 PM

ok the hub is 56 according to the guy, so i guess its not going to fit.

usually the bolt pattern on the subie's dont match the Evo / Lancers bolt pattern just mnake sure they are the same.

momokoo · Jul 2, 2009, 12:15 PM

Let me measure my centre bolt when I got home...^^ then I can see whether a 56" will fit or not...

but the offset... you can ask Tirerack... I believer +53" is too much for our car... it may hit the brake.. but I'm not 100% sure...

There is a thread on the main page of this section "Official wheel/tire info thread" ... just a message there and someone will be able to help you...^^

thanks momokoo, i was really hoping that sti rims would fit.

momokoo · Jul 2, 2009, 12:36 PM

hee~ np

How much is the offer..!? Is that really cheap..!?

but you need to know the condition of the wheel.... It may be beaten up by the wheel... so watch out... - -""

actually theyre in pretty good condition. pictures was sent to me and tires are still good. i need new tires asap. im using my spare right now. he was offering it for 400 otd.

May fit with project kicks type spacers (10mm/15mm/20mm,etc.) ....might not clear calipers without them, but on a regular lancer spacers may push them out too far toward fenders

DJ Brett B · Jul 2, 2009, 12:50 PM

why dont you try bolting one up to a front wheel stud on your car (front brake calipers are bigger) and see if there is clearance, then if not see if you have room to use a spacer like I mentioned without hitting fender? cut a cardboard box into a few pieces and cut holes in them for the wheel studs (use several pieces and measure to make sure they are at least 10-15mm) then gently put those on the hub then the wheel (without crushing the cardboard) to get an idea for fitment/clearance.... just an idea

momokoo · Jul 2, 2009, 12:58 PM

haha~

I totally forgot about the "spacer"....

but depend on your driving habit.... "spacer" aren't too good in high speed....^^"

j1a7y · Jul 2, 2009, 01:03 PM

oh i dont think the guy would let me do all that work just to see if it fits and i googled the spacer mentioned and i think it a little pricey. thanks for the input.
