Subaru offset is between 48-53, anything else can cause issues.

cheers for your reply tony,but having googled it many times the general view is anything between 38-50

The general view is not the official view its what people put on and say "yeah that fits ok" as they have no clue the official ET is 48-53, I think the last lot of Prodrive alloys I had were an ET of 52.
