Don't forget offset. If you tuck those rims in a little more you are better off until you hit the strut of course. |
Good point JC... If you get a 17x7.5 ET 35, you are going to hit the fenders with even a 225... I do not know what the optimal offset for a wagon is for a 245.. I would guess between 48, and 52, but don't know for sure. Definitely something worth searching for on Nasioc, or i-club. |
18x7.5" P1s have +53, which is the factory offset. That's the best size for 18s. Most other Subaru fitment 18s are probably +48 like Rotas though, which should still be okay with 225s provided the diameter is no taller than stock.
