*Sorry in advance!* Subaru Legacy 2007 Spec B Wheel options

[Tablefred395]

Hi guys, this is my first post to the group so sorry if I've done anything incorrectly! 

 

I know it must be a pain to constantly get asked this but WILL THESE WHEELS FIT ON MY CAR? 

 

Currently I have stock 18 inch Subaru wheels on (215/45/18 wheels and 18 x 7.5JJ with +55 offset)

 

I have found some ray volks second hand with no tyres on them, they are 17 x 9JJ with a +58 offset (I will be putting on 235/45/17 wheels on them)

 

My car is lowered on bilstein struts, don't know how this will affect anything just thought it would be good to give you guys all the information you could need

 

 

I really appreciate any help or advice given because I have no idea what I'm doing

 

Thanks

Not sure about the offset fitment but just check the overall diameter of tyre plus rim to see if different then stock as it may throw the speedo out if different.

 

P.S welcome to the club. Also have you tried the search function maybe with wheel fitment as the search or something similar

Welcome along!

 

This website is great for working out wheel fitment.

I can't speak for rubbing issues as I've never owned a legacy like yours but as far as rolling circumference is concerned they seem to be a good choice.

Check your distance to strut and guard clearance using the information from the link to get a better idea though.

Probably the best resource for what can go on these cars.

With that setup you'll be fine on the outside but may have some issues with the inner guard liner. My setup is mere mm away from the rear guard liner in one spot but wouldn't be the end of the world to shave that section back. Thinking you might almost run into strut clearance issues too. Most push the rims further out when going for a 9 but that'll be quite tucked so won't actually look that aggressive.

You may run into the strut.
