Hi! I was just wondering what size rims I can fit on my current Subaru Impreza. My stock rims right now are 5x100 16x6.5,+55. I want to go with 5x100 17x8+37. Will these rims fit my car without rubbing? Any help would be great! ---

I would try a Subaru specific forum. ---

Go to Tire Rack’s or Discount Tire’s website. They have that already calculated for you - including proper tire sizing. ---

> [@Brant.Langley\_177395](#): > > Hi! I was just wondering what size rims I can fit on my current Subaru Impreza I would imagine that where you are going to purchase these wheels and tires would have that information . And if I told you that they would fit how would you know that I really knew what I was talking about . That is why almost every place that sells tires and wheels has online charts to show you what fits. ---

No matter where the OP decides to buy his wheels, the valid info on that site will help him immensely. ---

Missed the part about tire size. You want to stay stock OD? You don’t say. ---

The offset is a little shallow. The recommend tire would be a 225/45-17. The recommended offset for that size rim is +45, these will stick out the sides (wider track) slightly but should be OK. ---

Just wanted to update this. I ended up going with a 18 by 9.5 rim from fitment industries. They are a great website! ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/6/0/60e3fc2e66a2bcad0277bc758d37e2755b61cfdd.jpeg) ---

That’s an inch wider than the widest 18" listed by Tire Rack. Do they have the stock offset? If not, keep an eye on your wheel bearings. ---

Indeed. Seems like there was a post on here a month or three ago from some guy with failed wheel bearings. He seemed a little less than receptive to the possibly that his wide, non-OEM sized wheels could have caused the early failure. Choices are great, as long as you acknowledge the consequences too. ---

Ledhed75, The Subaru was equipped with 3 sets of aftermarket rims with 170,000 miles. Had no issues with bearings. Then again, I took really good care of my car. Shouldn’t be worried though if you putting aftermarket rims on this car. ---

Worn rear wheel bearings are not uncommon on Subarus (happened to mine), just watch (or listen, actually) for them. Non-stock offset puts more load on them. ---

Very nice looking car, not my cup of tea, but I can respect the time and money you have put into it, the 2tone looks really nice as well, but no offence to the white one, but the wheels are sunk in to far… imo lol But that is a gorgeous color with the mostly blacked out look… 👍 ---

Do yourself a favor and get some mud flaps or what Subaru calls splash guards. it will stop a lot of pebbles from hitting the sides of your car. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/cartalk/original/3X/1/f/1fcaef45bb1989f429b7d0f813735053c00d1b53.png)
