Default Rim Offset and Tyre Fitment Guide

Ok, In addition to the "anything about rims" thread, this one is dedicated solely to rim offset and tyre fitment.

Below is what is meant by "offset". You can see how offset affects clearance from both the strut and gaurds.




Googling "offset calculator" will probably lead you to websites telling you how you can pay less interest on your mortgage... So go here instead.
Wheel Offset Calculator

Standard rim offsets are:
MY94-97 +55mm offset

MY98-00 +53mm offset

MY02-04 STi +53mm offset

MY01-05 +55mm offset

MY06-07 STi +53mm offset

Forester XT +48mm offset


Post pics of your rims (on your car) and state the rim size, and offset, as well as the tyre size. Along with any other info that may help people choose rim size and styles.
