Mine are:
XXR527 wheels 18" x 8.75" wide with 35ET offset in matte bronze.

Other bits required to fit correctly & avoid rubbing were:
Yoko Parada Spec 2 tyres 225-40-18 (slight stretch)
Tein S Tech lowering springs
Camber adjustment bolts fitted to all 4 corners (and digital camber, toe, tracking done). Camber now -2.0 at rear & -1.85 at front.
Rear arches rolled with very slight pull (not visible).
Wheels also require special wheel nuts & spiggot rings.

Thanks, I hoped they were although I want 17s so should be slightly easier to fit, with a different Off set.

Just need to decide on Bronze or black....

In 17" they are only 8.25" wide so will fit a doddle without camber bolts, arch roll etc.

Stunning. Looks perfect! I would be keeping them black or bronze. Not sure gold will look any better than this!

Lovely car!

It is pretty damned close mate, the Subaru colour might well be a little more blue, the blue really shows through in some lights. Top advice mate, I'll do that, I need to go back for a little touch up once the engine (gone for forged 2.1) is back in, so will grab the paint and code etc then
