Riptide Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Considering a set of stock wheels 17x7 5x100 off a 2005 outback. Looks like these are +48 offset. Has anyone used these with a LGT? How far do they stick out and does it look lame? Attached is a picture of the wheel. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobyscoodle Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 They stick out 7mm more than the oem lgt wheels. I like that style of OB wheel and they do look good on an lgt. Make sure you have a lgt sized tire though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riptide Posted February 27, 2013 Author Share Posted February 27, 2013 Cool thanks. I think the stock +55 offset wheels tuck in slightly so maybe these will be OK then. I'm trying to get a used set of 4 in good shape for $60 each. Hoping to get him to come down a little bit on them but it seems like a reasonable deal.

road race legacy Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 7mm is just a hair over 1/4". You will barely notice them sticking out. Go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't like them you can move them anyway. Same wheels on my OBXT http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php/official-garnet-red-thread-1499.html?p=4314142#post4314142 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmanaenk Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 But be prepared for somewhat reduced steering feel and a bit less stability under braking. 666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobyscoodle Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 I think the real world difference between the two is negligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
