Stock for the STi is 245/40/18 on 8.5 inch. I am surprised that these wouldn't fit and clear with some slight camber.

Awesome i didnt know we could fit 245/40/18 on narrow body's

Ideally i wanted 245/35/18 for less rolling diameter difference but that be a nightmare on rims especially mine

Just Rota T2R 18x9.5-38 with S1 evo 265/35/18. The wheels are a bit heavy but they were great value at $800 new.

The factory R spec BBS looked like pizza cutters after putting some camber and alignment through the car.

Stops any kind of shopping trolley style too.

Guards part rolled and very slight pull at the rear. The main issue I have is actually the fronts due to the castor settings moves the wheels well forward in the arches.
