I've today left the comfort zone of my mk1 focus RS for a blob eye 05 wrx wagon. Got a few ideas but I'm completely lost!!! Firstly what offset will I need for a set of rota grid drifts? Need to get some lowering springs as well! Suggestions please

Hello and welcome. Depends how wide the are mate, 8" and you'll want about 45 - 48 . Can't go wrong with eibach springs mate.

Cheers dude. Been looking @ the eibach springs, pretty reasonable price too. Think it sits to high standard, well at least compared to thE FRS! I'm well & truly out of the comfort zone lol

The standard offset for a subaru of your car's age is ET48-53, this is the recommended (official) offset.
The eibachs are a good chioce, if not those then the prodrive springs.
