This would look tough on the road.

Its probably been covered 100 times over but for an 05 sti which will be the better fit 18x8.5 +30 or 18x8.5 +38 And will +30 require rolling the gaurds.

or have a i missed a better size/fit/offset altogether

Both have to roll guards especially the rears but I would go with 8.5+38
It should clear the fronts Brembos IIRC

hmmm might be worth being safer and settling for something like 18x8.5 +44 or 18x8 +38

Go for the wider rim... more tire on the road (providing you're not a mexican/stance/stretch weenie)

Yeah, not bothered with a little camber and stretch. Just wanted to check with rim size, as i'd hate to be spending 900 on tyres every 4months all because i bought a rim with a slightly larger width/offset. My aim is to have the tyre slightly tucked. or pretty close to.

I want it to sit a little lower than this, rim style im after is actually pretty similar to that if not identical just not green

Curious to hear if any one has been running 17x9 or 18x9 sized rims on the MY11+ wrx/sti.

Should be easy? I've got 18x9's on a GD and the +MY11s have bigger arches surely?
