Forester XT+Sti Brembos= what wheels?
I have a Forester 2.5 Xt with wheels 16" x 6.5" ofset 48
I have bought some 4pot gold Sti brembo brakes and I want to find what kind of wheels do I need to make the brakes fit in.
17" wheels (prefered) or 18" wheels (doesn't matter)!!!
The ofset is critical matter because I need space clearence fro the brakes but also for the rear struts (ofset over 48 causes rubbing probem on the rear strut).
there is the Prodrive solution to go on 18"

any other suggestions???
probably will fir any 17" or 18" wheel (that clears brembos) but with ofset lower than 48.....PLEASE HELP
thank you.

You could use a et52 wheel off a bugeye onwards and use a 5mm spacer making the offset 47 so it's only 1mm out.
thats what i run on my MY97 S/TB
