Quick alloy wheel size question???...
Hello,
Just a quick question/advice for anyone...
I am thinking of buying some 17 x 7.5inch alloys, with 215/40 tires for my MY98. Is this a good setup? Do i need to worry about the offset and things like that. Hopefully this will improve handleing and ride quality right?

you do have to worry about the offset - not sure what the correct amount is 35-40 - think 40 but not sure.
then again i have a SPORT so it might be different for summet else.
Think we are on the wrong bbs - trying to get info out of this lot is like getting blood from a stone.

Mistacain,
I am currently doing exactly the same to my MY99. I am fitting 7.5/17" wheels from the sti7. The wheels are fine but require 215/40/17 tyres. Very frustating as i am waiting to hear back from crossroads garage!!!!. only got the wheels because the tyres were advertised so cheap!
Hope this info helps.
