Scion TC wheels for WRX?

Alright I'm kind of a noob when it comes to wheels so I apologize, but to my understanding anything with the same bolt pattern will fit, right? And I think the TC has 5x100? If so, do they look good on a WRX?

You'll have to have the proper offset too. Otherwise, the tire would stick out past the wheel well and rub.

the offset on the scion tc is 45mm vs 53mm on the subaru iirc.


it'll stick out 8mm's farther on a 17x7 wheel.

it's not going to fit properly because the subaru axel hub is bigger than what the stock tc wheels can offer. I tried on my friends tc wheels and it didn't fit.

yup, tC's have a 54.8 hubbore and subarus have a 56.1 so stock tC wheels will not fit.

most subaru wheels will fit tC's though..

i'm actually rolling around on a scion 2day.

i have the Rota VXRs on 'em... 35mm offset 5x100.

you can basically rock any subaru wheel on a scion Tc w/ just a a 5mm offset to use in the front.
