G3nX09 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 Yes i am serious. There are people on here with 9.5 wide rims.. I going for aggressive look. Not so much speed. Even though my motor is being built next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V8lolsubie Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Face palm. Search offset/wheel size Search Staggerd fitment That offset is super low and you will rub even with an aggressive alignment. Staggerd fitment on an AWD car? Please. I respect the fact that you want to do something different however you will destroy your cars drivetrain doing that. If you really like the look, buy a VW or Mustang. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G3nX09 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 why will i destroy the drivetrain doing that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattg Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 You would probably be ok if you maintain the exact same outside diameter for the front and rear tires. It is still something I would never do on a Subaru though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Assuming you run the same size tire front and rear, I think the biggest problem you will have is the inability to easily rotate your tires. The fronts will wear before the rear...once the diameter (because of wear) changes enough you can potentially have drivetrain issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G3nX09 Posted April 19, 2012 Author Share Posted April 19, 2012 ok so what your sayin is a should just do 8x8.75 +35 all around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spec B Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 That's what I would do.. Check out subiechik's photo thread, she is running that exact setup..looks sick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shades Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Best idea IMO for stance is to keep the same size all around (because you will destroy your drivetrain staggering, it's AWD not just Front or Rear) and get a set of coilovers to adjust the height of the front and rear yourself You gotta push your limits to learn your limits:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atchipmunk Posted April 23, 2012 Share Posted April 23, 2012 Yeah, on an AWD car it's a bad idea to run a true staggered wheel setup (different wheel widths front and rear) because the different rolling diameters of the front and rear tires will put added stress on the drivetrain and center diff. Even if you run different widths but the same sized tire front and rear the width of the wheel can affect the actual rolling diameter and make it different enough that it could still cause issues. IMHO, the only staggering you can do safely on an AWD car would be to use the same wheel widths front and rear (and same tire size) but different offsets. Like with the XXR 527's you could run the 18x8.75's both front and rear but run the +35 in the front and +20 in the rear. As long as the tire sizes are the same you'll get the staggered look without the driveline problems. Oh, and I doubt you'd be able to fit the 18x9.75" +20 on either axle without some custom work. From what i've seen, the 9.75" +20 barely fits on an outback with the added flare. On a stock fendered LGT the wheel itself would probably stick out past the fender. Not sure even some pulling could make up for that. You'd probably need some s402 fenders to make it work... I want to try to fit 18x9.75" +20 527's both front and rear but am planning on some custom fender work since I like a bit meatier tire. But that's a LONG way down the road...
