Ah, there's your problem.
A decent set of new 18" tyres will be 500quid ish so there won't be too many sets of wheels and tyres around for that price
Not interested in these?

I have a set of 5x114 Prorace 1.2 in white.
17" x 8" ET50.
They are pretty much new. Tyres fitted, then removed but never fitted to a car.
They are listed in the wheels for sale section if you want the full story.
There is a pic of one in the box there too. I dont have a car to put them on for pics but there are lots of images available on google etc.
Looking for £325 (+ £30 postage if required).
Let me know if they are of any use.
Cheers

I've got a set of 18s from a 330s hatch for sale, looking at shifting them quick. 2 of the tyres need replaced, other 2 aren't that bad. Alloys could do worth a refurb though.

Got a set of silver standard wheels - they have a few tiny marks, all centre caps are there and have 235/45/17 tyres fitted -all have tread but 2 are budgets and 2 are Dunlop SP Sportmax's
Was planning on putting them on mine but looking at others now so £300 would take them.

You'll have rubbing in that offset with a 9" wide wheel even with stretched tyres.
For example, XXR's are 8.75" wide and in that offset and with fat blokes in the back or under hard cornering you'll get tyre scrape from what most on here say unless you have your rear arches rolled and potentially pulled.
From what I've managed to find online, the Impreza typically prefers ET42+ up to around ET53 to avoid arch / tyre contact.
My old Rota Forces were 18 x 8.5 but in ET48 which means their new owner can run 235/40 tyres on it without rubbing. I suspect XXR owners won't be able to do the same.
