  1. This is very true. 255 StarSpecs measure 261mm wide. and 265 measure 272mm wide.

Same wheels as Hanger. 18x9.5 +40 Tires are 255/35R18 5mm spacer up front to clear the RCE coil overs. No spacer in the back. Rolled fenders. Even my 255 wide tire looks mildly stretched on a 9.5" wheel. I wouldn't go any lower than 245 unless you're into that sort of thing. But I personally hate tire stretching. Handling is ass. If you wanna run a 225 or 235 tire, an 8" or an 8.5" wide rim is more than enough (and cheaper!)
  3. I couldn't decide, so I have both. My wagon is not a GT, so it's slow as molasses, but the gas mileage of an NA motor is very appealing. I wish they made a Spec B wagon. Mmmmm 6-speed. EssTeeAai
  4. http://www.1010tires.com/Tools/Tire-Size-Calculator Use this. Enter your stock size, and enter some other sizes you're considering. Try to stay within 3% difference. EssTeeAai
  5. I like both wheels. But, do you have a BBK on your car? You said the wheels will be 19's. If your brakes are stock, the large holes of the Work wheels will expose the small brakes. My vote goes to the 2nd set. I've never heard of this brand. But they look like Rotiform BLQ's. EssTeeAai

  7. Thanks for the compliment. They're really growing on me. I had some rubbing in the rear. Click on the link below the pic. I posted exactly what I had to cut/trim to eliminate the rubbing.

  10. It's been done : http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/05-wagon-11-wrx-wheels-164539.html But I'll post mine as soon as I have them on. Fingers crossed that nothing will rub. I really don't wanna roll my fenders on this car.
  11. When these wheels first came out in 2011, I didn't like them at all. But they grew on me quickly. Especially when I started seeing them on other cars than the new WRX. They look sharp on our Legacy's, and your car inspired me to get a set for my wagon... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/ACCORDing2R/Wheels%20For%20Sale/WRX1_zps7b726dd2.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/ACCORDing2R/Wheels%20For%20Sale/WRX4_zps6080352d.jpg Here's a set I just acquired. Unfortunately, they didn't come with tires, so I'm on the lookout for a set of 245/40 summers. I know you said they fit well without any spacers. But I'm just curious, are your fenders rolled? Are they a close/tight fit to the suspension on the inside (having such a high offset for 8" wide wheels)? Is your car lowered? And lastly, what lugs are you using? They look black in the picture. What brand are they? Do aftermarket tapered lugs fit these wheels? Thanks in advance!
  12. ^^^ nice! I love the OEM look. I'm curious how the offset of those wheels looks on our cars. Do they sit deep inside the fenders? Or do they sit more or less flush? Can you please post pics from the front or rear of the car so the rims are visible. It's hard to see the offset from side profile shots.
  13. Wheel brand/model: Enkei NT03+M (SBC) Wheel height/width: 18x9.5 Wheel offset: +40 Tire size: 255/35/18 Dunlop Direzza ZII StarSpecs Camber F/R: -1, -1.5 Lowered: RCE Tarmac coilovers, GTWorx camber plates Modified Fenders: rolled & pulled Miscellaneous: 5mm spacer in the front to clear the coilover with the inside of the wheel http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/ACCORDing2R/Legacy/Enkei1_zps976709b6.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/ACCORDing2R/Legacy/Enkei2_zps34ac48af.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/ACCORDing2R/Legacy/Enkei3_zps13a89791.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v702/ACCORDing2R/Legacy/Enkei5_zps0a8c2c24.jpg
