PDC is 5x100 as for the offset it depends on wheel size and whether you have or intend to run bigger brakes.

If they are 5x100 and genuine Prodrive pff7 they will be fine.

Exclamation

ET38 is too low, especially with an 8J wheel..!

The wheel will sit too far 'out' IMHO..

On my 05 wrx (basically the same car in this department) I'm running 18x8J 48ET with 225/40's and they're just about right..

STi's got the 5x114 PCD to allow larger, stronger hubs to cope with the RE070 tyres; WRX stayed at 5x100 and the RE070's killed my humble WRX hubs

How did this happen?! Are the RE070 so sticky that they put that much stress on the hubs? I am thinking of putting Toyos R888 on my WRX wagon would that be OK?
