    No. Look at my fenders. They're rolled and pulled. That's with a wheel that's basically the same offset and an inch narrower. Not happening without major fender work, if at all.

    Re: aggresive fitment legacys

    That will fit with a considerable amount of effort, yeah. Just built a twin of my wagon with a buddy and put my RC-T4's on his car. Took quite a bit of work - it's easy for me to forget how much small fender work I've done over the last 10 years, lol. Much more drastic all at once.

    Good enough in my books since no one it seams like mods our cars but only a handfull of us!
    Now just get some TEIN or BC Coilovers to lower it a little bit.

    Re: aggresive fitment legacys

    I don't know if 8+48 counts. I mean it's better than most. But lower that can any and you'll really see the difference.

    18x9+30, just look at my car and imagine a 5mm spacer. It should look pretty awesome. Just be prepared to do the work.

    Wagons are awesome, there's nothing wrong with thinking that.

    Re: aggresive fitment legacys

    16x8.5 with 205 45s and an offset of 32. Most adapters are 20mm. Do you reckon an offset that low (12) would fit on a bg5? There's a bit of stretch on the tires. Trying to figure out what to run next summer. Might have to redrill these rims if I get them. And also a more general question. What's typically the widest rims that a bg5 could take, 9.5?

    I'll let you know about the 16x8.5 and the 18x9s in December sometime.

    My wheels would be shipped by then.

    Sounds good. Be glad you don't live in Canada with a lowered car. This is me, yesterday..."Your vehicle is unsafe because the tire COULD rub the fender around corners”

    Oh Noooooes!! Thats HONDA profiling.. geeeez.. did you turn your wheels from lock-to-lock? did it even come close?

    They cant just say "it could" they need proof.

    Besides you can always argue and get M.T.O to come out and argue with you.

    Pretty close. 1 finger gap when lock-to-lock. But it never does touch. Just always tucks. Even when he tried to push down on my fender (which I didn't appreciate).

    You can't run staggered on an AWD. If you want stretch, 18x8 will get you nowhere.

    I'm getting some steelies widened. 16s, but can't decide if I should go 8.5 or 9. Offset will be around 23. Any suggestions?

    I think anything lower then +35 offset you will be poking "inches", ideal offsets are around 40. I could be wrong.

    Re: aggresive fitment legacys

    Looking for poke. Looking at mine above. Those rims are a 42 offset and look no where near flush. Rear fenders aren't even rolled. I think I'm gonna get 16x8.5 with a 23 offset made. Then test fit. Work with it if I can, if not, I'll split the steel face and barrel and adjust offset.

    Few minutes of searching, I found this. 22 Offset.

    I'll post up pics when they happen. But is anyone else running 16x8.5s?

    If you run the same tyres you will still have problems due to the stretch decreasing rolling diameter on the wider wheels. Slight differences will ruin your centre diff.

    I don't think anyone is even running non Subaru 16s. 16x8.5 +23 will get you quite a bit of poke and stretch you'd get with 17s and that set up.
