Rim/tyre fitment on MY05 3.0rb sedan

Postby nixwrx » Thu Aug 15, 2013 1:33 pm

Gday everyone! First post (I think) here on this forum, and can't help but saying that the mod bug has well and truly bitten once again (I used to have a WRX).

I'm about to pickup a 2005 (MY05) 3.0rb sedan, and was wondering whether the stock setup will happily accommodate an 18X8 +43 rim with 225/40 rubber. Thoughts?

Thanks for the help!

Perfect specs for a Gen4 without fitment issues. :good:

Cool thanks guys

If I (eventually) end up going with Swift springs, you reckon I'll still be ok? I'll be running with pretty moderate alignment settings (everyday street use)

Will be fine mate.

If worst comes to worst, you'll need to roll your guards, not a big deal
