    BE Legacy Tommy Kaira 18x8 +54 Wheels

    I'm looking to run these wheels on my 03 Legacy L, but I'm wondering how much rubbing I'll get on stock suspension. I'll do coilovers eventually and but I don't plan to go much lower. I'm sure I'll have to roll the fenders, but will I lose any steering lock with how wide these wheels are? The offset is close to stock and the S401 had 18x7.5 wheels so I think I wouldn't have a problem but I just want to make sure.

    Thanks!

    I think the S401 has 18X7 wheels... unfortunately, I can't check that because I can't find my wheel lock key
    Regardless, if the TK wheels were made for the Japanese Legacy, then you should have no trouble on your car. Your car is wider.

    I think this particular set was actually made for a Japanese GD WRX. There were TK Pro R wheels made for the Legacy in 17", I believe, but I've never seen a set for sale.

    S401 wheels are 18x7.5 with an offset of 55mm. Do you know the offset of the TK wheels? If it is similar, the extra .5" width should not be an issue on the inside.
