so I was looking at rims and reading about offsets and wonder about a few questions. I notice that most of Ebay's rims comes 48+offset, and (correct me if I'm wrong) the Sti's is 53 offset. Few people said if the Offsets are not correct then the bearings will go out after a while. So here are my questions: What is the stock Offset for the WRX's? Is it safe to run those Ebay 48+ offset rims? whats the RECOMMANDED offsets for WRX's(after market rims)?
A large portion of the STI crowd run offsets that aren't even close to +53 in the winter. I'm sure it isn't as easy on the wheel bearings as +53 but I haven't seen any posts saying someone thought their's were shot because of it. tirerack recommends and sells rims for the STI down to the low/mid 40s. I think the general rule of thumb is to not go lower then that.
A..ME..TA...FA...Just sell your car??? Just get some rims for your truck??? 48-53 should be okay.....:emo::emo:
haha, no. Changed my mind on selling my car now. The truck is still here though. Big plans for next spring, just preparing stuff.
