any one know whats the offset on an 05 blobeye pcd100 they seem to range from 35 to 50 something and i read somewhere that it affects the handling all very complecated this buying alloys you just used to buy them and stick them on

 

ET 48 to 53, if yours is a wrx it will be a pcd of 100, if its an STI then its 114.3 (MY05 onwards).

My limit would be ET45 which is common in the Team Dynamics range and Inovite offerings. The Prodrive PWRC1's are the lowest offset of the OEM/Prodrive range at ET46 in STi fitment. Wheel width makes a big difference also as it's not always obvious in some adverts. 17x7 ET48 for example will almost certainly foul brembo calipers where as 17x7.5ET48 will 9/10 clear

 

its a wrx and im looking at 18x8 in size and it dont have the brembos on just the 4 pot subaru so no lower than 46 and up to 53 cheers for that

 

You will find that Prodrive did 2 ET's for their wheels, 46 being one, 52 being the other, and note that the standard wheels are ET53
