Youd be best not to run those wheels, destroys the handling of the Impreza, and are a nightmare to get to fit properly, youll need coilovers, camber bolts, arch rolling..the works. Granted they 'look' nice, but are useless as a wheel on these cars.

Them wheels would not fit a P1 unless it was running some arch extension of some sort, Had them on my hawk STi and as Trinity said they do ruin the handling off the car to some extent, they look good but thats it.
I ran 18x9.5 ET38 with 225/40/18 tyres, 5mm spacer on the front wheels as they will hit the Brembo's if you have them, and I had coilovers but did not have the arches rolled, Didnt have any rubbing issues, but they did make the steering feel heavy.

That's a shame they ruin the car, I've been after these for ages. Looks like I'll have to start looking for another set of wheels.
How can they ruin the car handling so much?

There are two widths in 18's, but the smaller width, the ones right for the Impreza, dont have the concave look, therefore look pretty rubbish. There are other wheels that look better than those. Its the concave ones that look the bomb, but destroy the Impreza.

Give us a shout if you ever head down this way, you'll hate my car with a passion I recon, but always happy to meet others. There's a surprising number of Subarus in this area. Godrevy isn't far from here, I'm in Camborne (sshhhhhhhh lol)

Lol, i will do that deffo! Loved driving the lanes at 3am with the flames lighting up the bushes.
Ive got a great shot of mine somewhere on the cliff with the Godrevy lighthouse in the background. Had to get a helicopter to work that weeek on the island...good times
