so just to get this right, your asking for wheel choices for your car, if so i can probably help with that, or is it you need to know the stock offset and pcd of a sti wheel?

Ginge, have a look on www.alloyguide.com, should tell you everything you need to know. Don't forget centre bore size too, you need something the same size, or bigger than your impreza already has.

the PCD of a STI is between 48 and 52,,,,,, BUT i wanna fit arch extentions to it which means im gonna need wheels with a ET20 ideally and impreza's dont have that, i wanna keep my track tyres in 17ins if i can too hence me thinking of other cars with the offset i need to fill the arches

my current offset is 49 and looks like



as you can see,,,,,,, they aint gonna fill them arches that well if im honest pmsl

your looking for wheels from another car....ie a car that has et20 wheels from factory or are aftermarket wheels ok.

whats your budget? as that will limit choices especially on the offset front, you might have to look at 25mm spacers
