These 18”x 8.5” CR-Teks can be custom-made off-set 18+ to 40+ (reckon will rub the guards at 40+)

Also, some newer years of WRX is 5/114.3 not the normal 5/100 stud pattern, please specify it…

Ive run 18x8 +35 enkeis 5x100 PCD with 0 camber at rear with coilovers and just rear gaurds rolled.

You should be able to run 18x8.5 +35 with a little bit of rear camber. or +40 with no camber imo...

Also wrx only run 5x100 PCD...

I dont think ur mate really has a clue..

time.
Yes I will speak to him over dinner, but after I speak to the guys at Tech9 WHEN I get a chance... my life's too hectic atm leaves me no quality time for my WRX

Message from my mate: "CR-Tek is only available in 18”x8.5” and 9.5” now… too wide for your WRX. Please be a bit patient as we are getting new mould for 18”x7.5” in around November. That will be the shot!"
well I'm fine to wait but only thing is they dnt do them in White like the Work rims.. and that means having to powdercoat them and could be bad coz apparently i'm a girl so that means I will hit Curbs...

No.
PCD of 07 sti is 5x114.3 whereas your wrx requires 5x100.
