It depends on how much money you want to waste?

Your coilovers 'should' give you enough adjustment to fit the wheels with the guards rolled.

If you don't want to roll the guards immediately, you probably won't be able to get the required -ve camber without using camber bolts as well.

Just do it once, do it properly. Get the guards rolled, then fit the wheels and go from there with your camber adjustments.

So I've got a stand hatchback wrx 2008 everything is stock and I wanted to know what are the biggest rims and tyres I can go without rubbing or hitting anything?? Also some rim suggestions...it's blue btw
Cheers

Ive got a GD so cant help of max size, but for colour definitely consider white, also have a look at Rota wheels. They are cheap but decent enough and heaps of us are running them.

Oh and make a driveway thread/introduction in the introductions area so we can have a perv at your betty

And look at the "Hot photo wrx" thread.
There are a few hatches in there to give you an idea.

I am hoping to buy some new wheels for my car and think i want enkei ev5s... tried a few places and found amazon.com have them for a very good price - only $600ish delivered... my question is the $10 shipping from USA to AUS too good to be true?? Has anyone had rims delivered from amazon?

Cant even get rims delivered from the east coast to here for that much - sounds too good to be true!
