Offset should be no lower then ET45, PCD 5x100
17" wheels look for 205/45 or more commonly 215/40 tyres.
18" wheels 215/35 or sometimes 225/35 tyres.
All of these may fit the criteria but if the spoke design does not clear the calipers, forget it

Why not have a look a 'dedicated' aftermarket Subaru wheels from such suppliers as;

easiest way is to ask if someone here already has that car & alloy combination.
