Default Struggling with alloy offest/size for WRX 2005

Can any of you guys give me an idea as to what I should be looking at alloy wheel size/offset for my Impreza WRX 2005? i.e 5x100, ET35 8.5j

I have found these , and according to alloywheelworld they will fit my car. However, looking at various other wheel sites, they suggest they wont fit?

Just for anyone asking what "ET" 48 is .

It comes from the German "Einpress Tiefe" , which simply means Pressed in depth.

Rather better for us to understand would be Depth of Offset .
You can all go back to sleep after that . .

18x8.5 et35 will rub unless you have the arches rolled and camber bolts , its the et35 bit thats to low et44 etc would be fine
