Default 18" Pwrc1 et46 ok on blob wrx?

Hi all.
Following plenty of searches on pwrc1, I see they were et53 for wrx and et46 for STIs. But are there any reasons why it is a bad idea to fit the et46 version to a my05 blob wrx?
Cheers

Cheers harri, yeah I got that that is why they are different, but just wondering if there is any reason not to fit the et46 version to a wrx in lieu of the et53 version. As you can tell, I'm still tempted by yours!!

No reason not to fit them, they'll fit without rubbing.

Cheers, thanks for confirming

Had a look at your garage. Assume this is what you are running?

Mine are ET53, but would prefer them in ET46 to fill out the arches a bit more.
