The PCD is the diameter of the mounting holes - (classic Impreza PCD is 100)the offset is a different kettle of fish and depends on rim size and spoke design - for 4 pots you need an offset of ET45 minimum on 17" rims and depends on the shape of the spokes so could be upto ET 52.

Check carefully before buying.
